When the mysterious case of a Delhi University assistant professor's murder at her home in East Delhi was finally solved, the details shared by investigators were truly shocking.
The 45-year-old professor was found dead at her home in Delhi's Vasundhara Enclave with wrists slit and serious head and face injuries.
Police said that the two accused, who have been arrested, lived as tenants at the deceased professor's ancestral property in Burdwan, West Bengal since 2023.
The couple wanted to buy that property and while the professor’s parents and two siblings were ready to sell it, she was reluctant to sell it.
The accused travelled 1,400 km to execute the murder and were accompanied by their minor son when they arrived at the Delhi high-rise to murder the DU professor, CCTV footage revealed.
Police said it has emerged that the accused carried the murder weapon with them and killed the woman inside her flat.
The breakthrough came after investigators detained the cab driver who had transported the suspects and analysed ride details to identify the passengers.
