A 55-year-old woman, Lataben Chauhan, was arrested in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, after allegedly drugging and robbing an elderly couple. Lataben gained entry into the home of 81-year-old Abdulbhai Sipai and his wife by offering assistance with household tasks. She reportedly served them Lassi spiked with a potent sedative, causing both to fall unconscious. Tragically, Sipai died from complications related to the drug, while his wife survived but required medical treatment. Following the incident, police upgraded the charges against Lataben to include homicide under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Authorities describe her as a habitual offender with a criminal record dating back to 2019, involving multiple thefts and violations of gambling laws. The Crime Branch identified her through a specific pattern of targeting vulnerable elderly residents, leading to her arrest and transfer to the Dariyapur Police Station for further investigation.
