The gruesome murder took place on November 15, 2022, and the investigation revealed a cold-blooded plot to eliminate Saurabh. As reported by NDTV, Muskan and Sahil were arrested on November 19, 2022, and are currently in police custody.
According to the police investigation, Saurabh, 25, was in a troubled marriage with Muskan, 23, and had been complaining about her behavior to his family and friends. On the fateful day of the murder, Muskan gave Saurabh the sleeping pills, which he consumed unknowingly.
