'Hammer Man' strikes in Delhi

NEW DELHI: Call him Delhi's Jack the Ripper or the Hammer Man. He rips but doesn't rape. Neither does he rob. He just kills unsuspecting women in the wee hours of the morning, tears their clothes and disappears into thin air. [...]

Mohalla police takes up sticks against hammer man
Sahim Salim
New Delhi, September 21 The men of Baljeet Nagar in West Delhi have picked up their sticks again, trying desperately to shake off the spectre that is the hammer man — a serial killer stalking the narrow lanes of this colony for the last two years, killing three women and grievously injuring one. Newsline on Thursday night joined the party of vigilant men, spoke to the area’s women and got a glimpse of their compelling fear; their insecurities with the law. [...]
Another patrolman, Mohan Kumar, said the attack on Savitri Devi was slightly different — “He had hammered a nail into her head. But the man has become more savage now, hitting at the head till his victim is dead.” Newsline tracked down Savitri Devi, who recalled that horrible night. “I was sleeping in the house with my two children. Suddenly, I felt a cloth pressed on my face. I passed out and awoke in a pool of blood; the blood was oozing out of a wound in my head where a nail had been hammered in.”

Granny held for murder, police rebuff 'hammer man' theory
(IANS)
NEW DELHI An 80-year-old woman and her relative have been arrested in West Delhi for allegedly killing her granddaughter over money, and the police Monday refuted speculation of a 'hammer man' or psychopath killer behind a series of murders in the same locality.
"There is no hammer man or psychopath killer in Baljit Nagar area of Anand Parbat. These are media generated idioms. All nine incidents in which three women were killed and seven sustained head injuries are not interlinked or connected," Deputy Commissioner of Police (West Delhi) Robin Hibu said. [...]

'Hammerman': Is the serial killer for real?
Arunoday Mukharji /CNN-IBN
[...] There are some older voices who think it is someone out to create unnecessary panic in an area already burdened with many problems. They rubbish claims of any serial killer.
"Some say he jumps from roof to roof, some say he disappears. This is all this believable!" says a resident, G D Aggarwal.
The dark alleys of Baljeet Nagar appear even darker in the present circumstances.
Earlier people tried to be brave and dispel rumours of the hammerman. But now, with repeated deaths around them, they have no choice but to start believing in a so-called serial killer.
