Description of the incident: What happened that day?
50 -year -old Saroj Kaul, who lives in Atrala area of Rewa, lived with his sons Valmiki and daughter -in -law Kanchan. There was often a dispute between mother-in-law in the house, which gradually took the form of enmity. Bahu Kanchan had hated her mother -in -law so much that she had made up her mind to kill her. On July 12, 2022, this opportunity was received when there was a debate between mother-in-law and mother-in-law about something.
A fight became fatal
The quarrel between mother -in -law and daughter -in -law increased so much that Kanchan lost her temper. He started a rage on his mother -in -law with laughter kept in the kitchen. Kanchan hit her mother -in -law more than 95 times in such anger that Saroj’s breath stopped. After the incident, Kanchan sat with a sickle near the corpse, and was covered with blood from head to toe herself. Kanchan’s husband was not present at home at the time of murder.
Son’s return and police action
When Valmiki Kaul returned home, he found his mother soaked on the floor and screamed. He immediately rushed the mother to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital, but the doctors declared her dead. By returning home from the hospital, the police had also reached the spot, which a neighbor had reported the incident.
Arrest of daughter -in -law and son
The police arrested both Kanchan and son Valmiki, daughter -in -law of Saroj, seeing the seriousness of the case. During interrogation, Kanchan admitted his crime. She told that she was married recently and in the beginning everything was fine, but in a short time quarrels started between mother-in-law. Gradually this hatred increased so much that he decided to kill his mother-in-law.
Court heard death sentence
The Rewa court has heard Kanchan guilty and sentenced him to death. At the same time, son Valmiki Kaul was acquitted by the court for lack of evidence. This strict action of the court has given a strict message to the family and society that crimes like domestic violence and murder will not be tolerated.
