NEW DELHI: A woman, who killed the school security guard with whom she was in a relationship, has been arrested by Delhi Police. The woman took help from her friend to get rid of 45-year-old Devi Dayal who worked as a night watchman in a private school in Seemapuri, Shahdara. The cops took no time in zeroing down on the woman after the call records of the deceased were analysed.
While investigating the murder case of Devi Dayal, whose body was found in the school premises on March 4, the cops noticed a number on which Devi Dayal used to talk frequently in odd hours. This led the cops to the doorsteps of the woman. She was called to join investigation. She soon broke down and confessed to have conspired with one of her friends and murdering Devi Dayal.
"On sustained interrogation, the woman stated that she was in a relationship with the deceased and he used to give money to her. The lady had seen that the deceased used to keep good cash. Meanwhile, she was in relationship with Sajid who was a driver and had a family of six to feed. Sajid also used to object to the deceased calling the woman. So, they hatched a plan to get rid of the deceased and also to rob his money," said DCP Shahdara Nupur Prasad.
On March 3, after getting a call from the deceased, the woman called Sajid and both of them together went to the school, where she sneaked in Sajid also, without the knowledge of the deceased. When the deceased was retiring after having drinks, Sajid came out and hit him hard on the head. They stole the money and cut the wrist of the deceased to ensure that he dies. They took away the locks of the school gate to give the impression of burglary. Both Sajid and the woman have been arrested.
