Describing the devastating impact of the loss on her family, Rakhi Agarwal stated that her "whole world has vanished" following the brutal killing of her son."

"My son was brutally murdered, and with him, meri poori duniya chali gayi (My whole world is gone). Every corner of our home reminds me of him. His room, his clothes, his photographs, and the silence that has replaced his laughter remind me every day that he will never come back," the letter read.

The grieving mother also highlighted the double tragedy that struck the family in the wake of the incident. She revealed that Ketan's grandfather, unable to bear the shock of the murder, passed away less than three weeks later. (ANI)
