Gurgaon: A four-month pregnant woman was found dead under suspicious circumstances on Friday in Sector 46. Her husband alleged that she was allegedly poisoned by her lover.
“The woman got married to a Hathras resident, and they had settled in Gurgaon. After some time, she had eloped with another man and after a year returned to her husband along with her lover,” a police officer said.
Satish Kumar (32), a casual worker, said that four years back he had a court marriage with Preeti (25), both belonged to UP’s Hathras area. Last year, Preeti along with her family members visited Gurgaon. She stayed with Satish in Sheetla Colony and one day when her husband was out for work, she eloped with Subhash, who was residing in the same locality.
Preeti moved with Subhash to his village in Faridabad but around 7-8 months back they both had some dispute and the woman contacted Satish. Since then they remained in touch.
On Wednesday, Satish went to Faridabad to meet Preeti, when she proposed to live with Satish and Subhash and the three moved to Gurgaon.
They rented a house in Jal Vayu Vihar in Sector 46. On Friday, Satish along with his neighbour Pappu left for work. “Around 5pm, I returned home but found the room locked from outside. We broke open the gate and found Preeti unconscious on the ground. Some white substance was oozing out of her mouth, it seems she was poisoned,” Satish said, adding that Subhash was missing.
“Subhash killed my wife because he was not happy with her decision to move back to Gurgaon,” said Satish.
SHO, Sector 50 police station, inspector Amit Kumar said that a case has been registered under Section 302 (murder) of the IPC. “Exact cause of death can be known only after the post-mortem report and the reason behind the murder will be known once the arrest is made,” the SHO said.
