Alwar: A man in Rajasthan’s Alwar district was killed by his wife, her alleged boyfriend, along with four contract killers on June 7. The victim has been identified as Veeru aka Man Singh Jatav. Veeru was found dead at his home. Initially claimed by his wife Anita as a sudden health problem, the truth came out over the next 48 hours after their son narrated the sequence of events to the police.
Reportedly, the woman was exposed by her 9-year-old son, who told the police he saw some men barge into their house late on June 7, and kill his father, while his mother silently stood there.
The boy also told the police he identified one of the killers as ‘Kashi Uncle’. He said, his father was suffocated and then attacked, according to the minor.
Recounting what he saw he said, "I had just fallen asleep when I heard a faint sound at the door. I opened my eyes and saw my mother opening the gate. Kashi Uncle was standing outside; there were four more people with him. I got scared, I did not get up, I started watching everything quietly."
Narrating the details of the spine chilling murder that he saw he said, "They came to our room. I got up and saw my mother standing in front of the bed. Those people punched him, twisted his legs and also choked him. Kashi Uncle had covered his mouth with a pillow. When I reached out for my father Kashi Uncle picked me up in his lap and scolded and threatened me," the boy said. "I became silent out of fear. After a few minutes, father died... then everyone left," NDTV quoted the child as saying.
Reportedly, Anita and Kashiram conspired the murder of Veeru by offering Rs 2 lakh to four contract killers.
