Delhi man murdered over alleged extramarital affair with former employer's wife
PTC News Desk: The tragic demise of Sachin Kumar, a 22-year-old restaurant employee in Connaught Place, stems from a tumultuous mix of financial disputes and an alleged extramarital affair with his former employer's wife, according to police reports.
Sachin, employed as a waiter at a popular eatery, was brutally stabbed to death by Hashib Khan, 31, who operated a T-shirt manufacturing unit in Sangam Vihar, South Delhi. Khan's wife, Shabina Begum, was also implicated in the crime. Both suspects have been apprehended by law enforcement authorities. The incident unfolded when Sachin went missing last Sunday, prompting his family to file a kidnapping report with the police. Deputy Commissioner of Police (New Delhi) Devesh Kumar Mahla disclosed that Sachin's phone records led investigators to Sangam Vihar, where Khan resided.
Further investigation uncovered a monetary dispute between Sachin and Khan, with Sachin purportedly owing Rs 2 lakh to Khan. Additionally, police sources revealed that Sachin was allegedly engaged in an extramarital relationship with Shabina Begum.
