A 27-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her live-in partner in southwest Delhi’s Munirka area over suspicion of an affair, police said on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Jagminthang, a native of Manipur’s Senapati district, was arrested by the police on Tuesday, they said.<\/p>\n
The woman was identified as Lhing Janeng, a native of Manipur’s Churachandpur.<\/p>\n
“A PCR call was received around 1.57 pm on April 8 about a body found with injury marks near a medical store at Kranti Chowk in Munirka. A police team rushed to the spot and found the body of a woman lying inside a room on the fifth floor of a building,” a police officer said.<\/p>\n
Police found Janeng had been living at the address for the last two years, and for the past one year, with Lhing.<\/p>\n
On Monday night, the couple hosted a party, which was attended by three other people – Kapgoulal, Nemneithem, and Kimneithem. The party continued until midnight, after which the guests left.<\/p>\n
At some point during the night, Jagminthang physically assaulted Lhing over suspicion of having an affair with another man in the nearby Kishangarh area.<\/p>\n
“During inspection, multiple injury marks were found on the body. The scene was examined by the crime and forensic teams. A post-mortem was conducted at Safdarjung Hospital, where the autopsy surgeon gave a verbal opinion suggesting physical assault as the likely cause of death,” the officer said.<\/p>\n
According to those who attended the party Monday, Lhing was physically assaulted two days earlier and also threatened during the party.<\/p>\n
Based on the medical-legal case report, a case under Section 105 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) was registered.<\/p>\n
“During questioning, the accused initially misled the police, but after sustained interrogation and technical analysis, he confessed to the crime,” the officer said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
