How Gym Affair Led Woman To Plot Husband’s Murder – And How She Was Caught

Chandigarh: 

Three years after a businessman was shot dead in Haryana’s Panipat, a WhatsApp message and a police officer’s keen eye have unearthed a murky murder plotted allegedly by the victim’s wife.

Vinod Bharara was shot dead at his home on December 15, 2021. The shooter was Dev Sunar, a truck driver involved in an accident that had left Vinod seriously injured. At the time of arrest, Dev Sunar had told cops that he shot Vinod dead because he had refused an out-of-court settlement in the accident case.

The victim was dead, the shooter was in prison and the case in cold storage. And then, a WhatsApp message popped up on the phone of district police chief and IPS officer Ajit Singh Shekhawat. The message urged the police officer to look into the matter again and raised suspicion that someone very close to Vinod masterminded his murder. Police found that the message was sent by Vinod’s brother Pramod, who stays in Australia. When the officer closely scanned the files, he sensed something wrong.
