Thursday, March 27, 2025 - A teacher has been murdered over an alleged affair.
The man, said to be a yoga teacher, was buried alive in December 2024
but his body was just discovered on Monday, March 24, after the police arrested
the accused following a long investigation.
The accused, who lives on Haryana's Rohtak, India, reportedly discovered
that his tenant was having an affair with his wife, so he organised with his
friends to kidnap his wife's lover and then bury him alive in a 7-foot-deep pit
in a field, police said.
According to police officials, Hardeep found out that Jagdeep, who lived
with him in a portion of his house as a tenant and taught yoga at the Baba
Mastnath University in Rohtak, was allegedly having an affair with his wife. He
paid some people to dig a 7-foot-deep pit in Pantavas village of Charkhi Dadri
- telling them it was for a borewell - and bided his time.
On December 24, Hardeep and some of his friends kidnapped Jagdeep - who
was originally from Mandothi village in Jhajjar district - after he returned
from work.
Jagdeep's hands and legs were tied and he was beaten up as the group
took him to the pit in Charkhi Dadri.
Once there, Hardeep and his friends taped Jagdeep's mouth so that he
couldn't make any noise and threw him in the pit, filling it with mud to bury
him alive.
A missing person's complaint was filed at the Shivaji Colony Police
station on January 3, 10 days after the murder. The police found no leads until
they accessed Jagdeep's call records some time ago and found enough evidence to
detain Hardeep and one of his friends, Dharampal.
After presenting them in court and getting their custody, police
officials began interrogating the two men, who revealed the details about the
killing.
The body was recovered on Monday, March 24, exactly three months after
the murder.
"There are other accused in the case, who will also be arrested
soon. The post-mortem has been conducted and we are waiting for the
report," said Crime Investigation Agency unit in charge Kuldeep Singh.
