‘I have no support’: Punjab influencer Manjit Kaur’s mother seeks answers after her death
Manjit Kaur, a Punjabi social media influencer, has died in mysterious circumstances. Her mother, Kanta Devi, is left to navigate her grief without any support, as her daughter has moved away and set up a new life. Kaur was allegedly kidnapped, assaulted, and set on fire in a forested area near Morinda on July 3-4. She passed away at a Chandigarh hospital on August 26.
The family accuses two acquaintances and the police of failing to act quickly enough. Devi lives with her 11-year-old son and is now caring for her 7-week pregnant daughter alongside a younger brother. She had started a beauty parlour business and was preparing to marry. The delay between the alleged crime and her death has hampered the investigation, with the police seeking the vehicle used in the abduction and critical CCTV footage now unavailable.
Devi is urgently seeking answers about what happened to her daughter, only knowing fragments of her life during the final months.
