UPSC Aspirant Killed By Live-In Partner

The 32-year-old’s charred body was recovered from his apartment in North Delhi’s Timarpur on October 6. Initially, the police had registered a case under sections related to negligent conduct with fire, but the subsequent investigation it was revealed that it was a case of premeditated murder.

His partner, a 21-year-old BSc forensic science student from Moradabad, along with her ex-boyfriend and another man, had been arrested in connection to the case. It has been learnt that the woman, believed to be driven by anger and humiliation, planned his murder after she discovered that he had secretly recorded obscene videos of her and then refused to delete them when she asked.

The accused allegedly killed the victim and staged the murder as an accidental fire.

According to the police, the main accused, drawing on her background in forensic science and interest in crime shows, meticulously planned the cover-up. On the night of October 5, she allegedly visited the victim’s flat with her ex-boyfriend, an LPG gas distributor, and an associate. The three allegedly assaulted the victim and strangled him to death before pouring oil and alcohol over the body.

“They opened the gas regulator and ignited a lighter, creating the scene of an accidental fire. The cylinder was placed near the victim’s head. About an hour later, the fire spread and the cylinder exploded, completely burning the body," the police officer said, as per Hindustan Times.

The plot began to unravel after the victim’s cousin raised suspicions about the circumstances of the death. CCTV footage from the building also showed two men and a woman entering the flat before the fire and the woman leaving shortly after.
