GURUGRAM: Police on Wednesday arrested the wife of a retired army subedar for allegedly planning and executing the murders of their daughter-in-law and tenants -- a shocking incident in Gurugram’s Sector 105 that left four people dead and a threeyear-old battling for life.

The retired subedar surrendered to the police on Tuesday morning claiming to be solely responsible for the murders, but the police on Wednedsay said his wife was “equally involved”.

The suspect, Rao Rai Singh Yadav, 59, was in police detention after he surrendered and was formally arrested on Wednesday along with his wife, Bimlesh Yadav, 55, after the two were questioned by the investigators. They were produced before a court on Wednesday, following which the man was sent on two-day police remand and the woman was given 14-day judicial custody.

Deepak Saharan, the deputy commissioner of police who is investigating the case, said, “Bimlesh has said that she was with Yadav throughout when he attacked the victims. She did not use the weapon but stood by his side and instigated him.”

According to the police, they killed their daughter-in-law suspecting her of having an extramarital affair with the tenant, Krishan Tiwari (45). Tiwari’s wife Anamika, 35, and the couple’s nine-year-old daughter were also murdered on Tuesday. Their three-year-old daughter underwent treatment at Delhi’s Safdarjung Hospital, and is now out of danger.
