New Delhi: A man has been arrested for allegedly murdering his wife, Supreme Court lawyer Renu Sinha. Nitin Nath Sinha was found after having hidden in the store room for 36 hours.
Renu’s brother alerted police after calls to her went unanswered for two days. On reaching the bungalow in Noida Sector 30, police found the lawyer’s body in the bathroom, reported NDTV.
Her husband, however, was missing. Police tracked his phone and managed to catch him.
The lawyer’s brother accused Nitin of murdering Ranu.
According to police, the motive behind the lawyer’s murder could be a disagreement between the couple over selling off their bungalow.
Nitin apparently wanted to sell off the property and had even taken a token sum from a prospective buyer. Renu was not ready to sell off the bungalow, and this led to frequent fights between them, the police have found.
