A woman along with three men have been charged for murder of her husband in Malad, Mumbai. While two men have been arrested, the wife and the doctor who helped her, are on the run.
The wife was not just involved in murdering her husband, but also creating a fake death certificate to prove that the death was natural.
Case:
- On December 20, Crime Branch Unit VIII in Northern suburbs of Mumbai got a tip-off that one Mahesh Patel (35), a resident of Madh Marve in Malad, was cremated without any intimation to authorities
- The culprits along with the deceased’s wife procured a fake death certificate from a local doctor – who passed it off as a case of natural death – and carried out Patel’s last rites
- Mahesh was a luxury bus driver and remained away from home for several days
- Arup Das (25) – one of the accused – was a supervisor at a South Mumbai hospital canteen
- Das used to stay at Mahesh’s home in Malad, however, had later shifted out
- Arup used to meet Mahesh’s wife secretly and subsequently shifted back to their house by offering Rs 5,000 per month rent
