In a shocking incident in northwest Delhi’s Shalimar Bagh area, a man surrendered to the police after allegedly murdering his wife’s suspected lover. The accused, Virender (35), confessed to killing his tenant, Kanhaiya (29), inside his jhuggi. Police swiftly responded to the confession and found the victim with fatal injuries at the crime scene.
The accused led the police to Jhuggi No. T-210, where the victim was discovered with his throat slit and multiple stab wounds. Virender’s suspicion of an illicit relationship between his wife and the deceased is believed to have triggered the brutal killing. CCTV footage from the area supported the presence of the accused at the scene of the crime.
A thorough investigation involving a crime team, Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) experts, and an Executive Magistrate was conducted at the crime scene. Legal formalities were completed, and the body was sent for a post-mortem examination. Meanwhile, in a separate incident on April 23, a 23-year-old woman was allegedly murdered by her husband in northeast Delhi’s Welcome area.
The accused, Deepak (28), surrendered to the police after strangling his wife at their rented accommodation in Janta Mazdoor Colony. The woman was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital, and the accused cited frequent domestic disputes as the motive behind the crime. An arrest has been made, and a case has been registered under Section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
