Man booked for killing wife’s ‘paramour’ in Nahan village

Solan, April 11

A man allegedly killed his wife’s “paramour” at Rukhri village in Nahan on Saturday. The Nahan police found the blood-soaked body of Man Singh on the Rukhri-Bankala highway. As per a preliminary probe, Man Singh’s illicit relationship with Rajni had become a bone of contention for her husband Dashrath. Man Singh had earlier allegedly eloped with Rajni about two months ago. When he again met Rajni on Saturday, it angered Dashrath and he hatched a plan to eliminate him, said Additional SP Babita Rana Pal.

The duo had liquor and food at a dhabha in Dhaulan Kuan and then Dashrath took Man on his bike and slit his throat at an isolated place at Rukhri. Dashrath shifted his family before the arrival of the police this morning. He is yet to be arrested. The husband-wife duo are migrants from UP. A case of murder has been registered. — TNS
