In a tragic incident that shook the community of Croydon, a 24-year-old man named Sahil Sharma has been found guilty of the murder of his wife, Mehak Sharma who was only 19-year-old. The harrowing crime unfolded on October 29 when Sahil fatally stabbed Mehak in the neck in their home on Ash Tree Way.
Sahil Sharma's chilling admission came in the form of a 999 call to emergency services immediately after the attack, where he confessed to the brutal act of killing his wife.

In her statement, DI Semple highlighted the significance of providing support to victims of domestic abuse, urging anyone facing such situations to seek immediate help. She emphasized the importance of prioritizing safety and reaching out to emergency services in cases where lives are at risk.
The sentencing for Sahil Sharma has been scheduled for April 26, where the court will determine the consequences of his heinous crime. As the community grapples with the aftermath of this tragic event, the memory of Mehak Sharma serves as a reminder of the urgent need to address and prevent instances of domestic violence.
