Police said the footage, recorded by lounge staff, confirms that Shalu and her husband Subrat were at Cosmozin Lounge in Tilak Nagar that night.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/>According to investigators, however, Shalu allegedly stayed in touch with the men she had hired to kill Vineet through WhatsApp calls, messages and voice calls and even guided them while she was at the party.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>The lounge&#8217;s CCTV DVR was found to have no stored footage, but videos recorded by the staff showed around 20-25 people, mostly couples, dancing to Bollywood songs. Shalu was seen wearing a dark purple gown while her husband was dressed in a grey shirt.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>In one of the videos, the couple is seen dancing to the song Tum To Dhokhebaaz Ho, Vaada Karke Bhool Jaate Ho. Police said nothing about Shalu&#8217;s behaviour appeared unusual and other guests at the lounge seemed unaware of what was allegedly unfolding at her home.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Murder allegedly planned over CCTV cameras<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Police arrested Shalu on Monday, alleging that she had masterminded the murder of her father-in-law after a former employee of Vineet claimed she had offered him Rs 6 lakh for the killing.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>Investigators suspect the alleged murder was linked to a dispute over CCTV cameras that Vineet had installed inside their apartment about 15-20 days before his death. Police said Shalu objected to the cameras, claiming they violated her privacy and caused her emotional distress.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>According to police, Shalu approached Vishal Gautam, a former employee at Vineet&#8217;s pharmaceutical store, and allegedly gave him the original key to the family&#8217;s apartment so that a duplicate could be made.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>Vishal then allegedly roped in his unemployed acquaintance Raj Kishor, 30, promising him an advance of Rs 30,000.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>Police said that on September 5, Shalu informed the accused that she, her husband and their son would be attending a party. <!-- -->She allegedly facilitated their entry into Ratan Orbit Apartment in Kalyanpur despite initial resistance from the security guard.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/>The duo allegedly told the guard that they were delivering medicines, with Vishal registering himself under the fictitious name Shivam.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"31\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Plan was to make murder look like heart attack<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>According to investigators, Vishal and Raj hid inside a bedroom after entering the apartment using the duplicate key.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"34\"\/>Police said Shalu had allegedly instructed them to suffocate Vineet with a pillow so that his death would appear to be from a heart attack.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"37\"\/>The plan allegedly went awry when Vineet entered the bedroom around 11pm and noticed something unusual.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"39\"\/>DCP West SM Qasim Abidi said the two men panicked and allegedly attacked Vineet with knives before fleeing the apartment by jumping over the rear wall.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"41\"\/>The postmortem later revealed 26 stab wounds on Vineet&#8217;s body.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"43\"\/>Police said the murder took place sometime between 10.30pm on Saturday and 3am on Sunday while Vineet was alone in the four-room apartment.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"46\"\/>Shalu and Subrat returned from the party and found Vineet&#8217;s bloodied body before alerting police.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"48\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Nothing stolen from house<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Investigators said CCTV footage showed Vishal and Raj leaving the apartment after the murder. They were arrested following an encounter late Sunday.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"52\"\/>After receiving medical treatment, Vishal allegedly told police that he had killed Vineet on Shalu&#8217;s instructions in return for money.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"54\"\/>Police said nothing was stolen from the apartment, strengthening their suspicion that the killing was motivated by personal enmity rather than robbery. <!-- -->Section 61(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, relating to criminal conspiracy, has also been added to the case.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"58\"\/>Police said Shalu allegedly admitted her involvement in the presence of female police personnel after being confronted with Vishal.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"60\"\/>The investigation is continuing, with police examining the alleged communications between Shalu and the assailants as well as the circumstances surrounding the murder.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/kanpur\/killer-bahu-kanpur-woman-danced-to-tum-to-dhokhebaaz-ho-with-hubby-as-father-in-law-was-stabbed-26-times-to-death\/articleshow\/133990663.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A woman allegedly orchestrated her father-in-law&#8217;s murder while attending a party with her husband.
