"I am a walking corpse," says her father Mohammed Sadiq (86), a retired professor who taught at JNU and Aligarh Muslim University (AMU).
"When my wife died I thought I have my daughter. Now all I have are memories”, he added.
“I think she loved her mother more and left with her… leaving me alone here”, he said.
