Wonder what Neeraj Kumar, Commissioner of Police, who denies that Delhi has become a crime capital, has to say about three murders in 24 hours. These incidents have been reported from three districts.

The first incident occurred in Mandawali area of east Delhi where a husband killed his wife and stabbed his elder brother suspecting illicit relationship between them. ‘The accused has been identified as Devender, 29, who is a cycle-rickshaw puller. Since long he suspected his wife and brother. On Wednesday, when he returned home late night, and he allegedly caught both of them in a compromising position,’ said a police official.

Devender apparently lost control and brought a knife from the kitchen. He started beating his brother and stabbed him on his abdomen. He also stabbed his wife to death. But  when he tried to flee away from the crime scene, the son of his brother nabbed him and raised an alarm. The neighbours gathered in the area and made a PCR call. Later, Devender was handed over to the police.

Both the victims have been taken to the nearby hospital where Phoolwati was pronounced dead on arrival.  Rahul has been critically injured. ‘Devender has been apprehended and has been booked for murder,’ the police official added.

In the second incident, a 28-year-old man stabbed his younger brother to death over a property dispute. The victim had apparently abused their mother The accused has been arrested.

Irfan, a daily wage labourer, stabbed to death Abdul, 25, around 11 pm on Wednesday at their Nihal Vihar house in west Delhi.

According to the police, Abdul, also a daily wage worker, had been disowned by his mother Saira Bano, 58, who lived in the house with her two other sons – Irfan and Ibrahim, 22.
