NEW DELHI: An alleged extra-marital affair turned out to be the reason behind a brutal and bizarre triple murder at Rajnagar, near Dwarka in south-west Delhi, on Friday night.

A couple and their daughter-in-law were found stabbed to death in their house in the dead of night. And the culprit, as all along suspected by the police, allegedly turned out to be the adopted son of the family who was arrested late on Saturday night. But not before, the accused, Nitin Verma (26), tried to cover his tracks with red herrings.

The ferocity of the attack could be gauged from the fact that there were 42 stab wounds on the body of Pooja Verma (24), the daughter-in-law, 18 on Vinod Verma (57) and 14 on the body of his wife, Pushpa (51).
Nitin, alleged the cops, had planned to eliminate his wife, Pooja, but was caught in the act by his parents. So, even as he was allegedly assaulting his wife on the second floor, his mother, Pushpa, rushed to protect her and was also stabbed. Vinod, who was attracted by the commotion, was similarly assaulted by Nitin.
The cops say that though the exact sequence is not clear, Vinod must have stumbled down the stairs since his body was found on the ground floor. His wife's body was found on a sofa on the first floor; police suspect it was removed by Nitin.

The bodies were discovered by a neighbour who had been alerted by Vinod's younger brother, Vijay, who stays at nearby Palam village.

Vijay had received a call from Nitin around 12.25 am that he had got injured in an accident while on his way home from work and that no one at his home was responding.

Vijay sent his sons Amit and Sumit to help Nitin and called up one Ravindra in Rajnagar to check out the house. Ravindra, too, said there was no response, but then he found the main door open and came across the body of Vinod lying in pool of blood.

Vijay rushed to the house and discovered the other bodies. By 1 am the police had been called in. When Amit and Sumit brought Nitin to the house, he was apparently so distraught with grief that he banged his head against the wall and fainted, said a family member. He had suffered injuries in his right hand and leg. He was taken to Deen Dayal Upadhaya (DDU) Hospital from where he was shifted to Safdarjang Hospital in the morning.

Doctors who conducted the post-mortem on the three bodies at DDU Hospital said there were stab wounds all over, including face and neck.
Nitin changed his statement later, according to the police, to say that three masked men had attacked them inside the house and he had escaped and reached Buddha Garden in the ridge.

With no valuables missing from the house and not much property at stake, besides the entry being friendly, these contradictory statements made Nitin the prime suspect early in the probe.

And within hours he was arrested after he allegedly broke down under sustained interrogation. "We have arrested Nitin Verma for the murders. He has confessed to the crime and the fact that he was having an extramarital affair with a local girl which drove him to the extreme step," said DCP, south-west, Shalini Singh.

In fact, late in the evening, police had said that they had recovered the weapon of offence, a dagger, and a blood-soaked towel from a railway line near Dwarka at the instance of Nitin.

The cops say the crime could have taken place around 12.15 am. Pooja, according to the police, was two months pregnant and worked at a private school as a teacher.

Her family, which stays in Paschimpuri in west Delhi, were alleging right from the beginning that Nitin was behind the incident though they weren't able to say why they suspected him.

Her uncle, Ved Prakash, said that Nitin had spoken to Pooja's brother, Rahul, at 10 pm and told him that he was at home. "Then how could he reach Buddha Garden," he asked. The family said the couple got married in January last year and it was a love marriage.

Verma was the eldest of three brothers and was earlier staying in Teliwara in Sadar Bazar. The family bought this house in 2004 and shifted. His two brothers are staying at Palam village.

"Nitin was adopted from Safdarjung Hospital and it was my father, Dilip Verma, who organised the adoption. He gave him the name, Nitin. He was loved and cared for by my brother and his wife and no one in the family ever got to know that we had adopted him," said Vijay.

The discovery of the decomposed body of an elderly couple on Tuesday sent shockwaves down the neighborhood.

A 16-year-old girl and her 22-year-old boyfriend were arrested for killing the girl’s adopted parents and leaving their bodies in the house to rot in an upmarket neighbourhood in Vadodara. The murder is said to have taken place in August.

The discovery of the decomposed body of an elderly couple from a locked bunglow in Manjalpur at midnight on Tuesday sent shockwaves down the neighbourhood. The disintegrating bodies of an elderly couple, Shrihari Vinod, 63, and his wife Sneha, 60, were found in their bedroom in Tirupati Society Bungalows after neighbours alerted the police. According to the police, the couple’s adopted 16-year-old daughter plotted and murdered her parents in early August and doused the body with a chemical to prevent emanating stench that could alert neighbours.

The neighbourhood of Manjalpur was shaken when cops broke open the doors of a bunglow that was ‘locked’ since early August after residents complained of a foul smell from the premises. What they saw inside was horrific. N M Ghod, Police Inspector of Manjalpur police station, said, “We found the highly decayed bodies of the couple, whom neighbours identified as Sneha and Shrihari Vinod. The post mortem of the bodies was conducted at SSG hospital but it has been difficult to exact the nature of death as the bodies are extremely decomposed. The forensics team, however, was able to ascertain that the death occurred sometime between August 3 and 5.”

Cops were stunned when they discovered a barrel of an acidic chemical that had been sprayed on the bodies – Sneha’s on the bed and Shrihari’s on the floor – to keep the bodies from giving out foul odour to alert the neighbours. A retired employee of Bank of Baroda, Shrihari, and his wife’s adopted 16-year-old daughter and a Class X student of Ambe School is the prime suspect along with her boyfriend 22-year-old Tapan Shailesh Purane.

A court here sentenced to death a 28-year-old man who murdered his parents, who had adopted him, and his pregnant wife in 2008,terming him a menace to society.

"The convict (Nitin) is a menace to the society. When he did not spare his own parents and wife and killed them in cold blood, what respect he would show for the lives of others," Additional Sessions Judge Virender Bhat said.

The court called the convict a live bomb, which has the potential of causing a huge catastrophe, if not destroyed at the earliest.

"I am of the opinion that the life imprisonment would be altogether inadequate punishment in this case, having regard to the nature of crime and manner and circumstances in which it was committed," Bhat said, terming the case among those rarest of rare cases that have shocked the collective conscience of the society.

"There was no justification at all for the convict to commit the grotesque killings. The convict appears to be without any remorse," the judge said.

Beti Bachao campaign is being shamed by some Daughters of India, where they are going to any extent if their demands are not met. While many have been striking at their husbands and in-laws with fake cases, some are not even sparing their own parents. 

A shocking case of double murder has been reported from Kanpur, where an elderly couple was found dead on Tuesday morning. The police has arrested their daughter in connection with these murders. 

Case: Munna Lal Uttam (62) and his wife Raj Devi (55) were murdered with their throats slit. Their bodies were recovered from separate rooms on the ground oor of their house on Tuesday morning. The couple lived with their son Anoop and adopted daughter Komal.

Initially, Anoop suspected involvement of his wife Akanksha and in-laws in his parents’ murder, as all was not well between them. In his complaint, Anoop alleged that a family dispute was going on with his wife and his brother-in-law Mayank. He went on to further allege that his wife’s family members had demanded Rs 50 lakh from them. 

Thus, Anoop had accused his brother-in-law and a samosa seller of the area of his parents’ murder.

Bijnor: After two children — Chirag (12), a student of class 4, and his neighbour Mahir (4) — were found murdered in Ketwali Pandki in Amroha district on Wednesday, Chirag’s 15-year-old adopted sister, who is also his cousin, turned out to be his killer, police said on Sunday.

Chirag’s father, Raju Saini, had adopted his sister’s daughter 15 years ago when he had no child. However, later his wife bore two children.

Amroha SP Kunwar Anupam Singh said, “We detained the deceased’s sister who confessed to her crime. She is not Chirag’s biological sister, so he used to taunt her. On May 8, when her parents were out for agricultural work, Chirag taunted her again. She struck him with a stick on his neck, causing him to collapse unconscious, after which she strangled him to death. She hid her brother’s body behind a heap of bricks. Cops recovered the rope and stick used in the crime.

Police said the arrested couple Faheem Shaikh (35) and wife Fauziya (27) were originally from Ajanta and currently residing in the Moghulpura area of Sillod tehsil in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar district. A local court on Friday sent the couple to two days of police custody.'

‘Purchased’ child died of infections after assault: Cops
Lawyers in Sillod abstained from representing the couple in the court following a resolution in protest against the excesses committed on the girl, identified as Ayat Shaikh. In the FIR registered with the Sillod city police station, the accused were booked and arrested for murder and under relevant sections of Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015.

Superintendent of police Vinaykumar Rathod said: "The autopsy report stated that the child died because of the infections caused by the injuries she had suffered in the alleged assault by the couple. The couple said they had paid Rs 5,000 to her biological parents to adopt the child. Buying or selling a child is an act of crime. We will investigate these violations as well."

An officer said the accused claimed to have a bond paper that stated the "willingness" of the child's biological parents to give their daughter for adoption to Shaikh and Fauziya. He said: "During questioning, Fauziya admitted to have assaulted the child, but said she was unaware that the action would lead to her death."

The officer said: "As the couple were trying to perform the child's last rites, some local residents alerted the police. Following this, the girl was taken to a sub-district hospital, where doctors declared her dead. The child's burial was performed in the presence of her biological parents."

South Korean adoption system systematically violated human rights: 'Children were made adoptable'

A new week, a new generation of the Goed Ingelichte Kring . Adoption is often seen as a noble act: a chance for orphaned children to find a loving home. Yet international adoption brings with it a complex and painful story. A truth commission from South Korea has now determined that the country systematically violated human rights. Host Sam Hagens spoke about it with radio host Mischa Blok and Alice Flikweert of the foundation Netherlands Korean Rights Group. Both were adopted from South Korea.

Fraud exposed

After a lengthy and in-depth investigation, a South Korean truth commission has found that the country committed decades of systematic human rights violations in intercountry adoptions. The investigation, which lasted two years and seven months, focused on adoptions to 11 Western countries and included a detailed analysis of 367 files. It covers the period from 1954 to 1999, a time when South Korea sent large numbers of children to the West.

"You read in black and white that fraud was committed on a large scale, and that children were made adoptable. That is a term that you actually loathe," says Mischa. Many files were falsified so that adoptees could no longer find their parents. "Instead of putting the name of the father and mother in it, they noted that you were foundling. Taking that away from a child - the basic information that you are entitled to, such as who your parents are and where you come from - is of course terrible."
