Murderer held six hours after killing his own sister
With the arrest of a 31year- old man, the police claimed to have solved the murder of his sister whom he had reportedly killed just six hours ago.
One iron needle ( poker), two mobile phones and a Scooty were recovered from his possession.
According to DCP, Northeast, Ajit Kumar Sangla, the accused, identified as Ram Karan, told the police that he lives at his in- laws house with his brothers in- law and sistersin- law.
For the past few days, he had warned his sister- inlaw ( the deceased) many times not to talk with a boy, but she continued.
“Last night, the accused slept on the roof along with his brothers- in- law and on suspicion, came down to the deceased’s room in the midnight and found that she was communicating with another person on the mobile.
When he warned her not to chat him, she started arguing with him. In a fit of rage, he punctured her neck with a poker and strangulated her by hands. Thereafter, he fled taking away the mobile phone and the deceased’s Scooty, Mr Sangla added.
The police said that the murder was reported on Wednesday when a PCR call was received at Welcome police station.
A case was filed under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code. After making inquiries, the police came to know that the caller’s brother in- law, Ram Karan was missing; they apprehended the accused who told the police that he was previously involved in the murder of his father- in- law, Nanhelal, in 2010.
