#GreaterNoida ‘gang rape’, murder: Death has haunted family for last 5 years

Silence and gloom prevailed in the neighbourhood in Jewar where the family targeted by highway robbers on Thursday night lived.
As soon as news of the alleged gang rapes and murder spread, the narrow alleys were packed with neighbours and relatives — silently waiting for the body of the man to come from the hospital for the last rites.
This was the fourth death in the joint family of four brothers in rather unnatural circumstances in the last five years.
In August 2013, the elder brother of the Jewar victim died when a train hit him when he was crossing a railway track on a bike. They still remember the crushed face and cannot forget the grief of that afternoon.
Before they could come to terms with the death, tragedy struck again.
In March 2014, the second brother died of cardiac arrest at his shop. He was 48 and had not been keeping in good health ever the death of his elder brother.
