New Delhi: A man bludgeoned his girlfriend to death with a cooker in Bengaluru’s New Mico Layout on Saturday. He was arrested on Sunday. The 24-year-old victim, Deva S, is from Kerala’s Thiruvananthapuram, while the accused is from Kollam, a Times of India report said.
According to the police, Vaishnav suspected Deva of having an affair with someone. An initial probe revealed that Vaishnav hit Deva thrice with a cooker somewhere between 4 pm and 4:30 pm. He emptied out the rice from the cooker before hitting her. Deva died on the spot.
The crime came to light when Deva’s sister, Krishna called on her mobile and also requested the neighbours to check on her. According to Krishna’s statement, the couple had gone to her house in the morning and were constantly arguing. She said that Vaishnav claimed Deva was always on her phone, messaging somebody. However, Krishna tried to pacify the two and sent them home around 1 pm.
Vaishnav confessed to murdering Deva, claiming that even after being warned several times, she was in constant touch with someone and was also close to him.
The couple had met in Kerala via common friends and had been living together for the last three years and had moved to Bengaluru just one-and-a-half years ago.
