The Haryana police claimed today that Sachin, a resident of Haryana’s Jhajjar, killed the Congress worker because of a financial dispute. The police said he was the victim’s friend and would frequently visit her house in Rohtak.
The accused runs a mobile shop in Jhajjar.
“When the body was found, we set up eight teams, including an SIT. Our priority was to identify the victim when her body was found. When the family identified her, the police conducted swift investigations to trace the accused…For the past one-and-half years, the accused was in contact with the woman through social media and also used to visit her home,” additional DGP KK Rao was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
Rao said the murder took place on February 27 after a heated argument between them.
“There was a monetary issue between the two, but what it was, all this has to be verified first. We cannot say this was the reason (for the murder),” he added.
