Adulterous wife kills husband

Matka king murder case: Six including wife, son convicted

Matka king murder case: Six including wife, son convicted

MUMBAI: A sessions court on Friday convicted six accused in the murder case of matka-king Suresh Bhagat, including his wife and son.


According to prosecution, the motive behind the murder was that Bhagat's wife Jaya and son Hitesh wanted to usurp his property and take over his multi-crore gambling business.

Bhagat, along with five others, was killed, in pursuance to a conspiracy, on Alibaug-Pen road on June 13, 2008, when a truck collided with his Scorpio.

Later, police found that the accident had been orchestrated by his wife and others, for taking over the matka business, and they had hired Suhas Roge to do the job.

The Mumbai crime branch had arrested eight persons - Suhas Roge, Harish Mandvekar, Kiran Amle, Shaikh Azimuddin, Pravin Shetty, Jaya Bhagat, Hitesh Bhagat and Kiran Pujari - in connection with the case and booked them under Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA).

However, in April 2009, the special MCOCA court dropped the stringent Act after the defence lawyers argued that there were no previous cases against their client - which is an important ingredient for applying MCOCA in the case.

Later, Kiran Pujari and Shaikh Azimuddin sought to become approvers in the case and the court directed a magistrate to record their confessions.

Pujari, in his confession, said that he had met Jaya at her residence and Roge had suggested eliminating Bhagat. He said that Jaya had allegedly said that Bhagat was going to destroy the matka business, and to this, Roge suggested that a more "permanent" arrangement should be made.

Chief public prosecutor Kalpana Chavan told the court that this was a cold blooded murder and examined 80 witnesses to prove the case.

However, what bolstered the prosecution case was the statement of confession by Pujari and Sheikh.

Sessions judge S G Shete convicted six accused for murder and criminal conspiracy and the quantum of sentence is likely to be handed over on July 29.

Woman tramples live-in partner to death

Woman tramples live-in partner to death

CHENNAI: Police on Saturday claimed to have solved the July 2 murder of a real estate agent in Thirukazhukundram, 45km from Chennai, with the arrest of his live-in partner.

Serena, 32, trampled Suresh Kumar, 31, to death when he was asleep because he had objected to her friendship with a woman named Gowri, police said. Kumar was heavily drunk at the time. She then hung his body from the ceiling.

The next morning she alerted neighbours saying she had woken up to find Kumar hanging. Soon, police arrived on the scene and began investigations. Not convinced with Serena's answers, police registered a case of murder but initially suspected the hand of an outsider. "However, Serena remained on the list of suspects list as she was present in the house at the time," a police officer said.
It was thought that he had been strangled, but the injury on one side of the neck ruled out this possibility. The usual marks associated with it were absent, police said. But the symptoms present made it clear he was murdered.
Unable to make up their minds about the cause of death, police again turned their attention to Serena after rejecting the chances of an outsider having committing the crime. She was taken to the police station and questioned separately by a team of women personnel. She finally confessed to the killing.
Inquiries revealed that Suresh Kumar, a resident of Vallam near Chengalpet, had been living with Serena for the past couple of years. Serena, whose husband lived and worked abroad, resided at a house in Thirukazhukundram with her son and daughter. Trouble began between the couple when Suresh Kumar objected to Serena's friendship with Gowri and they often fought over the issue.
At night on July 1, a fresh altercation broke out over the subject before the couple went to sleep. Later, Serena woke up and trod on Kumar's neck with her foot, according to her confession statement. She later hung the body from the ceiling and went to sleep.
Serena has been remanded in judicial custody.

Missing activist's bones found, wife killed him

Missing activist's bones found, wife killed him

NEW DELHI: Six months after a social activist and local communist leader from Bawana in north Delhi went missing under mysterious circumstances, the crime branch has disclosed that he was murdered by his wife and her brothers-in-law.

The cops have recovered the skeleton and other remnants of Ramcharan Ram (60) and arrested his wife Janki Devi (45) and her brother-in-law Vinod Kumar (35). Cops are still looking for another accused, Jhagru, who is also Janki's brother-in-law. Vinod and Jhagru are self styled godmen.

Janki was afraid of losing the property as Ram was having an affair, police said, adding that her brothers-in-law were enraged after the leader brutally thrashed his wife.

The case was cracked after the special operation squad (SOS) of crime branch received a tip-off that the missing leader may have been murdered and buried by his wife and brothers-in-law. The informer said that the accused were trying to flee to Bihar. "Immediately, a team led by ACP Suresh Kaushik and inspector Ashok Kumar was formed to arrest the accused," said additional CP Ravindra Yadav said.

The SOS team apprehended Janki and Vinod, who were packing their bags, from their house in Bawana. During questioning, both tried to mislead the police team but broke down under sustained interrogation and confessed to have murdered Ram.

The accused revealed that Ram sold one of his houses for around Rs 7 lakh and purchased another house for Rs 4 lakh. Janki said Ram had developed an illicit relation with a woman in the area and had spent the remaining amount received from the sale of the house on her.

This led to frequent quarrels between the couple and Ram often beat her up, Janki claimed. They had a big fight when Janki caught him trying to take away property documents of the house with intentions of transferring it on the woman's name.

In December 2012, she shared her problem with Vinod and Jhagru, who assured to help her. For two weeks before the murder, the accused held Ram captive in a room on the first floor of his house. They told the neighbours that he had gone to his native village.

On the New Year's Eve, they made Ram consume a lot of alcohol but he did not get drunk enough. The next day, they made him drink more alcohol until he was extremely inebriated and then Jhagru smothered Ram with a pillow while Vinod and Janki pinned down his hands, police said.

That night, they could not dispose of the body. Next evening, when there was dense fog, they put the body in a gunny bag and took it to a nearby isolated field and buried it in a pit. Yadav said they had recovered the skeleton and remnants of the body on the instance of the accused with the help of a mobile crime team and forensic experts.

Is India's suicide law being misused?

Is India's suicide law being misused?

Last year, more than 13,000 farmers killed themselves in India.
Most were saddled with steep debts, having failed to pay back loans they had taken from banks, micro-finance companies and money lenders after their crops failed. Farm suicides - nearly 300,000 since 1995 - are India's shame, a colossal national tragedy.
But, can the lenders be lawfully charged with abetting such suicides?
Going by India's laws, yes. The country's 153-year-old penal laws say abetting suicide can fetch the offender up to 10 years in prison and a fine.
In May, Sudipta Sen, a businessman who allegedly defrauded thousands of depositors in the eastern state of West Bengal, was charged with abetting the suicide of a "depressed" investor.

So was Suraj Pancholi, who was arrested after his girlfriend, Bollywood actress Jiah Khan, killed herself last month.
Mr Pancholi spent time in prison after police announced they intended to charge him with abetment. He was bailed on Monday, with the judge saying he did not appear to have a motive for inciting his girlfriend to kill herself.
Tuesday's papers reported a similar incident. The former boyfriend of a film editor, who allegedly took her life, has been detained and charged with abetment of suicide in Mumbai. Reports said she had accused her boyfriend of rape and, more recently, he had called off their planned wedding.
India's Supreme Court has repeatedly said that to convict a person for abetting suicide, it has to be proved that they instigated the suicide or that "there was a clear intention to commit the offence".
"It's not easy to prove," leading lawyer KTS Tulsi tells me. "It's like showing the gun, showing the poison [to the victim] and telling him or her, 'go ahead and die'. That's the kind of active facilitation which is not easy to prove."
No wonder the conviction rate in cases of abetment to suicide is abysmally low - 1-2%, Mr Tulsi says. More than 135,000 people took their lives in India in 2012 - more men than women, and the majority of them married.
Mr Tulsi accuses the police of abusing the law. "The law is very clear about how abetment should be defined. Unfortunately, our police are not literate enough in grasping the finer definitions of laws. The result is unnecessary harassment of people," he says.
Legal experts believe India still needs the law, considering the large number of women who still take their lives following dowry demands. More than 8,000 dowry deaths were reported in India last year, according to the National Crime Records Bureau. A third of the offenders were convicted. Lawyers believe many of these convictions related to the suicide of a dowry victim were secured after proving the abetment charge.
However, India possibly needs to scrap the other colonial-era law that makes it illegal to take your life. It is a crime that can fetch you a year of prison time. England scrapped a similar law in 1961, but the former colony still persists with what many believe is a retrograde measure.
