Father Kills Tennis Star Daughter Over Academy Dispute
A chilling case of parricide has sent shockwaves through the nation. Radhika Yadav, a 25-year-old former tennis player with a promising future, was allegedly murdered by her own father, Deepak Yadav, on July 10, 2025.
The horrific incident stemmed from a bitter dispute over Radhika’s successful tennis academy. Deepak Yadav, reportedly feeling humiliated and financially reliant on his daughter’s earnings, pressured her to shut down the academy.
Radhika, however, refused to relinquish her hard-earned success. This defiance, sources suggest, led to a violent confrontation culminating in her tragic death.
Police have arrested Deepak Yadav and investigations are underway. The incident raises serious questions about family dynamics and the pressures faced by young, successful women in India. The case serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for addressing domestic violence and the protection of women’s rights.
