In a shocking incident in Bengaluru, India, a 27-year-old woman named Prema has been arrested for allegedly murdering her boyfriend, Kiran, by tying him up and setting him on fire. The couple, who worked together at a mobile service provider store in Rajajinagar, had been in a relationship for nearly two years. The relationship soured after Kiran rejected Prema's marriage proposal, which police suspect may have triggered the murder. On the day of the incident, Prema invited Kiran to her home in Anjananagar, claiming to have a surprise for him. Once there, she blindfolded him and tied him to a chair under the pretense of a romantic proposal. She then poured petrol and kerosene on him and ignited the flames, leading to his immediate death. Neighbors alerted authorities after hearing Kiran's screams and seeing smoke. Initially, the case was treated as a suspected suicide based on Prema's claims, but inconsistencies in her statements prompted further investigation. Police found evidence of premeditation, including the procurement of the flammable liquid and a recording of the incident on her phone. Prema's changing accounts eventually led to her confession, and investigations are ongoing.
