Woman and Ex-Boyfriend Arrested for Murdering UPSC Aspirant Over Private Videos
Imagine someone kept private videos and pictures of their girlfriend and many other girls on a computer disk, and wouldn't delete them even when asked.
The police say this led to a terrible argument.
The girlfriend, along with her ex-boyfriend and a friend, is accused of killing the man.
To hide what they did, they allegedly tried to make it look like his apartment caught fire and exploded.
However, cameras outside the building saw them coming and going, which helped the police figure out it was a murder, not an accident.
The girlfriend is studying how to solve crimes, which is called forensic science.
Three individuals, including a forensics student, have been arrested for the murder of UPSC aspirant Ramkesh Meena.
The accused allegedly murdered Meena and then set his apartment ablaze using a gas cylinder to disguise the crime as an accident.
A primary motive appears to be retrieving a hard disk containing private videos and photos of the victim's live-in partner and at least 15 other women.
The victim had allegedly recorded these videos and refused to delete them despite requests.
CCTV footage showing the accused entering and exiting the building was crucial in uncovering the murder plot.
