In a significant breakthrough, police arrested a 60-year-old man in Ludhiana, Punjab, who had been evading arrest for 35 years after murdering his landlady in August 1991 in Vinod Nagar, East Delhi. The accused, who was 25 at the time, attacked the 55-year-old woman and her 18-year-old son with a chopper during a robbery attempt, believing she had cash at home. The woman succumbed to her injuries, while her son survived. The case was reopened last year, leading to a renewed investigation that tracked the suspect through his relatives and technical surveillance. The accused admitted to the crime during questioning and had been working as a security guard in Ludhiana. His long evasion included moving between cities like Kolkata, Mumbai, and Nagpur to avoid detection.
