Wife alleges murder

According to Mamta, a dispute had taken place with some women from their neighbourhood over a religious programme at a temple.

She alleged that after the argument, Swadesh Vishwakarma and Jagdish Vishwakarma reached their house and created a disturbance by allegedly kicking and hitting the gate.

She said she informed Dial-112 following the incident, after which police reached the spot and began looking into the complaint. Mamta also claimed that she has videos related to the dispute saved on her mobile phone.

The next day, Mamta went to the Civil Line police station to complain about the earlier dispute and her husband’s health condition. During this time, she received a call from police informing her about an accident and asking her to reach the district hospital.

When she reached the hospital, she was informed that Rakesh Khare had died after being hit by a train on the railway track. His body was sent for post-mortem examination.

In her written complaint, Mamta alleged that some people involved in the earlier dispute had threatened to get her husband killed and falsely implicate him in a case. She demanded a fair investigation and strict action against those responsible.

Police awaiting post-mortem report
