Tuesday, 18 December 2018 | Staff Reporter | NEW DELHI

An 18-year-old boy identified as Kapil Malik and a juvenile was apprehended by Delhi Police Special Cell, for allegedly murdering a woman inside her residence in Dwarka. Police revealed that the two accused persons are reportedly sharp shooters of the Sandeep Mental gang and were directed by Sandeep’s brother to kill the woman, to avenge Sandeep’s death.

According to police, the deceased Kamlesh (45) was shot at multiple times, after two armed men barged into her house in Dwarka’s Sector 23 area. “The victim’s maid was present in the house, with the help of neighbors, rushed injured Kamlesh to the hospital where she succumbed to her injuries,” said the Deputy Commissioner of  Police (Special Cell) Pramod Singh Kushwah.

During investigation, police found that Kamlesh along with her brother had murdered her own husband in the year 2004. She remained in the jail for a period of 3 years in the said murder case. After coming out of the jail, she got into a relationship with Rajiv who is presently on an interim bail in a double murder case of his rival gangster Sandeep alias Mental and Pawan.

“During surveillance it was found that Sonu, with his three associates had a hand in the murder. More intelligence was collected about absconding desperados including

Sonu, Neeraj, Kapil Malik and a juvenile in conflict with law, who were identified to have committed the murder,” Kushwah said.

“On Saturday, information was received that Kapil Malik and a juvenile in conflict with law, would come near Paschim Vihar West metro station to meet one of their associates in A trap was laid and the accused were arrested. One semi automatic pistol along with three live cartridges was recovered from Kapil and one country made pistol along with three live cartridges registered in police station Special Cell,” Kushwah said.

Subsequently, during interrogation they told police that Sonu, Sandeep’s brother had directed them to kill members of rival group to settle scores with Rajiv as he had murdered his brother Sandeep on May 2nd, 2018 in Delhi. 

“Following which, they hatched a plan to murder Rajiv’s partner Kamlesh. It has also been revealed that Rajiv and Sandeep were partners in construction business and real estate, dealing in sale and purchase of disputed properties. Both had constructed seven-eight flats in Dwarka. Investment on these flats became bone of contention between them and Rajiv along with his associates murdered Sandeep and Pawan so that they could usurp the whole money derived from sale of flats.

“Sonu, suspected that Kamlesh had instigated Rajiv to kill his and so, in order to avenge the killing of his brother, he lured in Kapil, Neeraj and a juvenile to kill members of Rajiv’s group.

Further it was found that they had tried to kill Rajiv multiple times at Dwarka court but due to heavy police presence, they didn’t attempt to execute the plan. Finally, they killed Kamlesh Sehrawat in her house to teach Rajiv a lesson,” Kushwah revealed.
