New Delhi:
Three weeks after a 32-year-old civil services aspirant’s charred body was recovered after a fire in north Delhi’s Timarpur, cops have uncovered a chilling murder conspiracy executed with precision.
The investigation has revealed that the victim’s 21-year-old live-in partner hatched a murder plot with her ex-boyfriend after the victim refused to delete her private videos he had stored on a hard disk. The third person in the conspiracy was a common friend. All three have now been arrested, and their questioning has uncovered the grisly murder.
On October 6, local police rushed to Timarpur’s Gandhi Vihar after receiving a fire alert. The flames were put out, and a charred body was recovered from a fourth-floor flat. The dead was identified as Ram Kesh Meena, a 32-year-old who had been preparing for the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) entrance exam.
Ram Kesh’s family raised questions. A case was registered, and the police started an investigation. While scanning CCTV footage from the building, cops noticed something shocking. Two persons, their faces covered, entered the building the night before the fire. Some time later, one of them exits the building. And then, a man and a woman exit the building. This woman was identified as Amrita Chauhan, Ram Kesh’s live-in partner. The fire broke out soon after they left the building, the CCTV footage showed. Amrita’s phone confirmed that she was near Ram Kesh’s flat at the time of the incident. Police added the murder charge and started an in-depth probe into the conspiracy.
