Indore: In a shocking incident in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, a man was apprehended for allegedly stabbing his 20-year-old live-in partner when she refused to engage in physical intimacy with him.
The victim and the accused had recently become acquainted on Instagram and decided to share a rented residence in the city. The incident occurred in their rented home in the Raoji Bazaar neighborhood on December 7, but the woman’s body was discovered by law enforcement two days later, on December 9.
The accused, identified as Praveen Singh, 24, hails from the Guna district of Madhya Pradesh.
According to Deputy Commissioner of Police Abhinay Vishwakarma, the accused became enraged when the woman rejected his advances. The refusal led him to attack her with a pair of scissors, resulting in a fatal stab wound to her neck.
After stabbing the woman and taking away her cellphone, the accused fled the scene, locking the house from the outside. Law enforcement, however, managed to locate and apprehend Praveen Singh once the murder came to light.
