Gurugram: A 28-year-old woman was found dead in her room on Saturday in Khoh Manesar Village.
The woman was allegedly strangled to death by her sister’s husband when the former husband went to work in a garment factory.
The reason behind murder is unknown.
Mohammad Qadir, according to the police, lives with three children and his wife Shabnam Khatoon in a rented room in the village for the past year.
Qadir returned home from work on Sunday and found his wife died.
Qadir’s brother Qadir Mohammad Shahid came to Gurugram last week from Noah to find work and he lived with Qadir.
“Shahid lived with us for the past five days and when I went to work, he was in my house,” said Qadir, as he added that Shahid strangled his wife to death after a fight.
“My children slept when he lay in bed.
His face was covered with a blanket and there were signs of injury on his neck,” Qadir said.
Qadir was told by his eldest son about the argument between his wife and Shahid before dinner at that night.
He suspected Shahid killed his wife.
“The deceased has a sign of an injury to his neck and face,” said ACP (Crime) Pal Sangwan, added that they tried to track the suspect.
Based on complaints, a case has been registered at the IMT Manesar Police Station under the 302 (Murder) of the IPC.
