Woman kills lover’s wife, falls to her death

Ahmedabad: A 34-year-old woman strangled her lover's wife and then fell to her death from the fourth-floor lodgings of the victim, in the nursing staff quarters of Himatnagar Civil Hospital.
Police are questioning the deceased's husband to understand how and why the crime took place.
According to the FIR filed at Himatnagar A Division police station, on Oct 17, Dimple Patel was alone in her quarters.Her husband, Bhavesh Patel, who works as a staff nurse at Himatnagar Civil Hospital, called her, but his calls went unanswered. He told his neighbour, Sajjansinh Parmar, to check on Dimple. When Sajjansinh called her name several times and got no response, he phoned Bhavesh and told him to come home immediately.
The FIR further mentioned that Sajjansinh and Bhavesh broke open the door and found Dimple lying dead with multiple wounds. The two then heard a thud and when they looked down from the balcony, they saw Bhavesh's girlfriend, Chhaya Damor, lying on the ground. Other staffers rushed to Chhaya and found that she was dead. Damor strangled Dimple and then fell from balcony, according to the complaint.
Dimple's father, Babu Patel, a salesman at a sari showroom in the Satellite area of the city, stated in his FIR that Bhavesh had an affair with Damor for around five years. Bhavesh was earlier working at Sola Civil Hospital before he was transferred to Himatnagar Civil Hospital.
Bhavesh and Dimple moved to Himatnagar in 2019, where Bhavesh met Damor, and they fell in love. Dimple told her family members about Bhavesh's affair with Damor and they tried to convince him to sever all ties with Damor, Babu said in the FIR.
P M Chaudhary, the investigating officer and inspector of Himatnagar A Division police station, said that investigators have been questioning Bhavesh about the crime. "We are investigating whether Bhavesh had directed Damor to kill Dimple or if she killed her on her own. We are yet to ascertain if Damor committed suicide after the murder or she fell while attempting to flee," said Chaudhary.
A complaint of murder was registered against Damor, who is now dead.
