A 22-year-old man was arrested in Palwal, Haryana, India, for the alleged murder of a 45-year-old woman in Faridabad. The victim, who had been in a relationship with the suspect for three years, was last seen on April 15, 2023, when she left her home in Kabulpur, Sector-58, to pay an electricity bill. Following her disappearance, her body was discovered on April 17 in a drain filled with water hyacinth. Police investigations revealed that the suspect killed her after she threatened to disclose their illicit relationship to his wife. The suspect confessed to the murder, stating that a heated argument ensued, leading him to compress her neck with his legs. After the act, he attempted to conceal his crime by disposing of her body and belongings at a distance. The suspect's father was arrested earlier for helping him escape post-crime. An FIR was filed on April 17, 2023, under sections 103(1) (murder) and 238(a) (causing disappearance of evidence) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
