A woman in Lucknow allegedly had her husband killed by her lover and his associate after repeated fights over his contact with his first wife and her affair.
The body of the victim, identified as Ramkishore Valmiki, was found inside a trunk near the Bhavakheda Canal on September 17.
This caused frequent fights between the couple. Eventually, Valmiki resumed visiting his first wife, Kavita Devi, and gave her financial support – which Sufia opposed. The two entered the house when Valmiki was asleep and stabbed him. The accused tried to destroy evidence by plastering the floor and hiding the bloodstained broom, the victim’s clothes, and the knife used in the crime. The cops began an investigation and found Valmiki’s body on the same day.
The body of the victim, identified as Ramkishore Valmiki, was found inside a trunk near the Bhavakheda Canal on September 17. Soon after, Valmiki learned about Sufia’s affair with Munna alias Muchhad (52). On the intervening night of September 14-15, Sufia invited her lover Munna and his associate, Iqbal, to her house and left the door unlatched. On September 17, Valmiki’s first wife filed a complaint at the Mohanlalganj police station, accusing Sufia and others of murdering Valmiki. Subsequently, the police arrested all the accused by tracking the route of the e-rickshaw and tracing footage from approximately 180 CCTV cameras.
The accused woman, Sufia Bano, had been in a relationship with Valmiki for around four years, and the two had married about two years ago, according to the police.
