India police uncover multiple murder conspiracies and domestic plots

Multiple criminal investigations in India have uncovered murder conspiracies involving domestic disputes and premeditated plots.

In Nagpur, police arrested a woman in Thane for her alleged involvement in the murder of her husband, Gaurav Ragde. The incident occurred after a dispute regarding her extramarital affair. Authorities state that the victim was attacked by an associate of the woman's partner.

In another Nagpur case, a man was arrested after a post-mortem examination revealed that his wife, Lakshmi Roshan Shahakar, died from internal injuries rather than an accidental fall as he had claimed. The dispute reportedly stemmed from suspicions regarding an extramarital relationship.

In Pune, a chargesheet has detailed a conspiracy to murder realtor Ketan Agarwal. Investigators claim the accused used a fake Instagram account to lure the victim to Lohagad Fort, where he was killed following previous unsuccessful attempts on his life. The digital trail included searches on Google, YouTube, and ChatGPT.

In Jabalpur, police uncovered a plot where a man, Prayas Pandey, hired three contract killers to murder his pregnant wife, Kavita Chaudhary. The perpetrators attempted to stage the killing as a road accident, but technical surveillance and mobile data led to the arrest of the shooters and the mastermind.
