Murder accused jumps into well to hide in Bharatpur, held

JAIPUR/AJMER: A 23-year-old murder accused was rescued from a well at Sikri in Bharatpur on Sunday.
Balbir Singh had allegedly murdered one Aseem Khan (50) over a petty issue late on Saturday.
Fearing arrest, Pal jumped into the well in the wee hours on Sunday.
Police said Singh, a native of UP, had been living in Sekri town for the past one year and was working as a labourer.
“He had a tiff with Khan two days ago over a petty issue.
Last night Balbir went to the residence of Khan to confront him and hit him with an axe lying nearby.
Khan died on the spot.
The deceased wife screamed for help after which the accused fled from the spot,” said police.
Fear of being caught by villagers who were hunting for him after the incident, Singh jumped into the well.
He remained there till morning when a villager saw him.
The villager called other villagers for help who identifies him as the man who killed Khan.
The well was 5-feet deep because of which Singh didn’t drown.
Some villagers called police which informed the SDRF team for rescue.
“The accused was fearing for his life and was not willing to come out.
Police assured him of safety which led him to hold the rope tightly and was pulled out,” police said.
Police CO Satyaprakash Meena said Singh was arrested soon after his medical examination.
“We are collecting evidence from the spot.
The reason for his jumping into the well due to guilt or to save his life from the villagers is not known yet,” said Meena.
