Sanjana could not believe that her healthy father could die of a heart attack.
Daughter became suspicious due to mother’s evasive answers

During the investigation, when the police scanned the CCTV footage installed outside the neighbors’ houses, there was a stir. In the CCTV footage, two people were seen entering his house, on the basis of which the police took the investigation forward and the whole story of the murder came to light. All the arrested accused have been sent to judicial custody on Thursday evening.
