But on one such night in January 1996, that stillness was broken by something unspeakable. Inside a quiet home in Vasant Kunj, a nightmare unfolded—one that everyone around had feared, one that the victim herself had warned of, and one that, chillingly, would go on to change the country. This is the story of that quiet winter evening in Delhi, that Vasant Kunj home, and the one woman who found herself stuck behind its walls in the presence of pure evil. This is the story of Priyadarshini Mattoo.
