The tourist destination of Manali in Himachal Pradesh woke up to a gruesome crime on Friday morning when a man, identified as Rishabh Saxena of Rohini in New Delhi, allegedly killed the ‘paramour’ of his wife, and also shot her leaving her seriously injured before turning the gun on himself. 

According to police, two women were running a hotel at Shuru in Manali, which they had taken on lease. Yesterday, they called their friend Sunny Sheravat of Gopal Nagar, Nazafgarh, New Delhi, for dinner, who stayed in the hotel at night.

When in the morning Rishabh reached the hotel premises, he found his wife Ravleen Kaur with Sunny, which infuriated him. This led to a scuffle and Rishabh shot his wife and her friend Sunny. Later, he committed suicide by shooting himself.

Confirming the incident, Kullu SP Gurdev Chand Sharma said Sunny was killed on the spot while Ravleen was seriously injured. He said Rishabh committed suicide by shooting himself. A forensic team has been called at the spot and the matter is being investigated, he said, adding prima facie it seems the women had no role in the crime.
