The police has stated that a 34 year old NRI was allegedly murdered by his wife and her paramour during a vacation in India, and Sukhjit Singh, an NRI, was murdered on September 1st allegedly by his wife Ramandeep Kaur Mann (31) who has colluded with her husband's best friend Gurpreet Singh alias Mitthu during their visit to Uttar Pradesh's Banda district last month.
The police have claimed that Gurpreet has reached her house at 10 pm following which they went upstairs and Gurpreet has hit Sukhjit Singh on the head with a hammer, while Ramandeep has smothered him using a pillow. They have suspected he was still alive so Gurpreet slit his throat using a butcher's knife, which he had brought with him.
It was stated that while Gurpreet was arrested moments before he was due to board a flight to Dubai, Ramandeep has confessed to the crime on hearing about his arrest, Sukhjit and Gurpreet had been school friends in UP and has remained close after the former moved to Britain, where he has married Ramandeep in 2005.
Ramandeep's affair with Gurpreet apparently began during a family holiday in November last year. She grew up in Berkshire, south-east England, and works as a store manager in Derby, in the East Midlands region of England. Meanwhile Vrijendra Singh Yadav, Superintendent of District jail where Ramandeep is lodged, has said the British High Commission is taking report on her on daily basis.
