A 45-year-old businessman, found dead on a railway track, is being investigated as the prime suspect in the murder of a 40-year-old guest lecturer in India.
The lecturer was found dead inside a charred car in an isolated spot, and investigators suspect a pre-meditated crime.
A personal dispute is believed to be the motive, stemming from an extra-marital relationship between the lecturer and the businessman.
The couple had gone on a long drive before the lecturer's death, and police suspect the businessman tried to mislead investigators by torching the car.
A case has been registered, and further probe is underway to establish the full sequence of events.
