Bhopal Model Death: Boyfriend Charged Under 'Love Jihad' Law
Following the death of 27-year-old model and social media influencer Khushboo Ahirwar, popularly known as 'Diamond Girl', police have registered an FIR against her live-in partner, Qasim Hussain, based on statements by her family.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Adityaraj Singh said a case was filed on Tuesday night under sections related to assault, the Madhya Pradesh Religious Freedom Act (commonly referred to as the 'Love Jihad' law), and the SC-ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. The investigation has been transferred to Chhola police station, which will probe all angles, including alleged coercion, assault, and religious conversion.
Officials had said Qasim and Khushboo were returning to Bhopal from Ujjain on Monday morning when Khushboo's health deteriorated inside a bus near Bhainsakhedi on Indore Road. Qasim took Khushboo to a nearby private hospital and reportedly fled when doctors declared her dead. He was arrested later.
The final postmortem report revealed that Khushboo was pregnant at the time of her death. Doctors determined the immediate cause of death to be a ruptured fallopian tube that caused internal bleeding - a pregnancy-related complication. Officials clarified that assault has not been confirmed.
Deputy Commissioner of Police Mayur Khandelwal said, "The cause of death is complications arising from pregnancy. There are no visible injuries on the body. The viscera has been preserved for forensic testing to confirm whether the rupture was natural or externally induced."
Earlier Suicide Attempt
Doctors have told the police that Khushboo had attempted suicide about a year and a half ago. Old cut marks, known as hesitation cuts, which are typically associated with suicide attempts, were found on her hands.
Police said the marks were at least a year old, suggesting that Khushboo had previously struggled with self-harm or mental distress.
Khushboo's family, however, remains unconvinced by the medical explanation. They have accused Qasim of murder, alleging that he refused to marry her after promising to do so. "Khushboo wanted to marry Qasim, but he kept delaying. When she pressed him for marriage, he killed her," said Lakshmi Ahirwar, Khushboo's mother.
Family members claimed they found bruises on Khushboo's body, alleging she had been beaten before her death. They also accused Qasim of deceiving her about marriage and religion.
According to police sources, Khushboo and Qasim had been in a live-in relationship for over a year and a half, living together in Bhopal. Qasim, who runs a cafe in the city, is originally from Ujjain.
Known by her Instagram handle @DiamondGirl, Khushboo was a familiar face in Bhopal's modelling circuit, with thousands of followers. A college dropout from Vidisha, she had been living independently in the city, managing small brand collaborations and modelling assignments.
'Love Jihad' Law
The inclusion of the Madhya Pradesh Religious Freedom Act, 2021, or the 'Love Jihad' law, has added a political dimension to the case. The Act criminalises religious conversion through coercion, deception, or marriage and carries stringent penalties.
Data presented recently in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly paints a grim picture of its enforcement. Between January 1, 2020, and July 15, 2025, a total of 283 cases were registered under the law. Of these, 197 cases (nearly 70%) remain pending in courts. In the 86 cases that have concluded, there were 50 acquittals, only 7 convictions, and one case that ended in a mutual compromise.

Aamir Khan And Girlfriend Gauri At Breach Candy Hospital To Visit Dharmendra
Veteran Bollywood actor Dharmendra's health has drawn widespread concern after news broke of his hospitalisation at Mumbai's Breach Candy Hospital.
Over the last couple of days, numerous film personalities have been visiting him.
Among the recent visitors was Aamir Khan, who arrived at the hospital with his girlfriend Gauri Spratt. The couple was photographed entering the medical facility, seated together in the back seat of their car.
Prior to their visit, several stars including Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Govinda and others had stopped by to check on Dharmendra's condition.
Dharmendra is "recovering and responding to treatment," according to a statement shared by his son Sunny Deol's team on Tuesday.
In a follow-up statement, Sunny Deol's team added, "Dharmendra is responding. Family is hoping for a miracle."
As concern grew, false reports about Dharmendra's health began circulating online, prompting swift clarifications from his family. His daughter Esha Deol took to Instagram to confirm that her father is "stable and recovering."
Dharmendra's wife, actor and BJP MP Hema Malini, also dismissed the rumours, writing on X that her husband is "responding to treatment and recovering." She criticised those spreading misinformation and urged everyone to rely only on verified updates.
What is happening is unforgivable! How can responsible channels spread false news about a person who is responding to treatment and is recovering? This is being extremely disrespectful and irresponsible. Please give due respect to the family and its need for privacy.
— Hema Malini (@dreamgirlhema) November 11, 2025
Earlier, Sunny Deol had appealed to the public not to believe or share unverified news regarding his father's condition. Dharmendra has been receiving treatment at Breach Candy Hospital for several days now.

"New York Will Become Mumbai": Billionaire Slams Zohran Mamdani's Policies
Billionaire real estate investor Barry Sternlicht has warned that New York City could "turn into Mumbai" under the leadership of mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic socialist set to take office on January 1.
Sternlicht, who serves as Chairman and CEO of Starwood Capital Group, told CNBC that his firm is considering relocating from New York following Mamdani's victory. He predicted that other companies may also move their operations out of the city due to what he described as rising costs and anti-business policies.
Starwood Capital Group, which holds extensive commercial and residential real estate in New York and maintains offices in Midtown Manhattan, has long been involved in major development projects. However, Sternlicht said that mandatory union rules and escalating project costs are discouraging further investment.
"Over $100 million, every project in New York has to go union, and it's super expensive. It leads to extremely expensive housing. And other developers have tried to cut deals with the unions, but they rule New York, and that's one of the key reasons the blue states are so expensive and they're so difficult to add a supply of housing to," said Sternlicht in an interview with CNBC Property Play.
"And then the far left gets really nuts and says the tenants don't have to pay. Well, you can't kick them out if they don't pay. So the neighbour finds out the neighbour isn't paying, and they don't pay, and the next guy doesn't pay, and then you're basically going to turn New York City into Mumbai."
Sternlicht's comments reflect concerns among some business leaders who believe new regulations could affect growth and investment. Mamdani's office has not yet commented on his remarks.
