Delhi man arrested with alleged girlfriend for murdering his wife
India
A disturbing case from Delhi: police arrested a 22-year-old man, Md Lal Babu (also known as Zahid Ali), and his alleged girlfriend, Rukhsar Khatoon, for the murder of Babu's wife.
The crime happened in Delhi's Prahladpur.
Both suspects are now facing murder charges at Shahbad Dairy police station.
Investigators used over 300 CCTV cameras
Police say Babu planned the murder with Khatoon because he wanted to marry her.
After the crime, he left Delhi with his young son and got help from his cousin, Md Osama, to escape toward Bihar.
Investigators tracked them by reviewing more than 300 CCTV cameras across several cities, including Delhi and Mumbai, which eventually led to their arrests.
Osama was caught earlier and is in judicial custody; the case is still being investigated.
