MUZAFFARNAGAR: Police have arrested a man for allegedly getting his first wife killed in a village of Muzaffarnagar. Mohd Furqan has been booked for “orchestrating” the murder of his first wife Mohsina.
Police claimed that Furqan gave Rs 3 lakh to contract killers who shot her dead on July 15.
Police investigation revealed a chilling trail of events.
Furqan got married to Mohsina in 2012. A few years later, Mohsina allegedly got her sister-in-law killed over some dispute for which she was arrested and sent to jail.
While she was still in prison, Furqan married another woman, a namesake of Mohsina. A couple of years later, the first wife came out on bail and confronted Furqan. “Fearing that his first wife, who had already committed a murder, could kill his second wife, Furqan plotted her murder,” a police officer said.
Senior superintendent of police Abhishek Yadav had ordered Mansoorpur police to crack the case.
SHO KP Singh said, “Furqan’s first wife was threatening him to give share from his property. To get rid of his first wife, Furqan had hired a contract killer.”
