On Monday, Shantibai had gone to attend a wedding reception in Dwarka Nagar, however, Vishwakarma grew suspicious and went to the venue looking for her. When Shantibai returned home, her husband started beating her up. The woman called for her son Shivraj to rescue her from her angry husband.
The mother and son thereafter hatched a plan to eliminate the man. Shivraj asked her mother to bring Vishwakarma to Malkhedi road. When the couple reached the destined spot, Shivraj, who was already there, attacked Vishwakarma with a sharp-edge weapon. He also smashed his face with a boulder.
After killing the man, the mother and son went to the police station to file a missing complaint of Vishwakarma. Later during interrogation, the duo confessed to have killed the man. The police have registered a case under section 302,201 of IPC and 25/27 of arms act.
