Delhi man kills friend over suspicion of illicit relationship

India

In northeast Delhi's Nand Nagri, 20-year-old Shivam Yadav allegedly shot and killed his friend Kapil Suresh (28) on the intervening night of August 8 and 9.
Police say Shivam suspected Kapil was involved with his younger sister, and the attack happened while Kapil was sitting at a tailor's shop.

Tensions had been building for weeks

Tensions had been building for weeks—Kapil had earlier fought with Shivam after misbehaving with Shivam's wife while drunk.
This only deepened Shivam's suspicions about Kapil and his sister.
Fueled by anger, Shivam got a country-made pistol, followed Kapil after work, and shot him.
He later confessed to planning the murder when police caught him.
The weapon has been recovered, and investigations are ongoing to piece together the full story.
