India: Jaipur woman, lover kill husband, carry body on bike

The video shows Gopali Devi and her alleged lover, Deendayal Kushwaha, transporting the body to dispose of it in a jungle. Police believe the two then set the body on fire to destroy evidence.

“The victim had objected to their affair, which led his wife and co-accused Deendayal to strike him with an iron rod in a fit of rage, causing him to lose consciousness. He possibly died on the spot,” said Digant Anand, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), South, Jaipur.

Afterward, the pair packed Saini’s body in a sack, loaded it onto Kushwaha’s motorcycle, and searched for a place to dispose of it. CCTV footage captured them passing through a busy market area with the large sack. Near the Ring Road, they unloaded the body and set it on fire, likely hoping to destroy any clues that could identify the victim. However, they fled when they saw a car approaching, leaving the body only partially burned.

The half-burnt body was found near the main road two days later, and police were able to identify the victim. While Gopali Devi has been arrested, it is unclear if police have located Kushwaha.
