Man kills daughter-in-law for refusing advances

South district police claimed to have arrested a 53-year-old man for allegedly murdering his daughter-in-law after she refused to entertain his advances.

Reportedly, Arshad Ali stabbed to death Sabina (25) in her Sangam Vihar house on the night of 29 April and fled from the spot.  Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Chhaya Sharma said, Ali was apprehended on Tuesday after a tip-off.

‘After we arrested him, he told us he was attracted to his daughter-in-law and wanted to establish physical relationship with her. He teased her earlier as well, but the matter was never brought to the notice of police and was sorted out within the family,’ said Sharma.

On 29 April, Ali went to Sabina’s room and found her alone there. He then tried to convince her but she slapped him. An enraged Ali stabbed Sabina repeatedly and fled from the spot. He threw the blood-stained knife and shirt in  the hilly area of M Block, Sangam Vihar, the DCP added.  

Police suspected Ali as his landlord, Salim, reported that he  saw him climbing down the stairs in blood-soaked clothes and with a knife.

Ali, who hails from Chamarpur village in UP's Badaun district, shifted to Delhi three years ago.
