A 44-year-old woman was allegedly murdered in southwest Delhi by her live-in partner, who throttled her with his elbow and was so drunk that he carried the body to the car but couldn’t drive, so he left it there while he went home and slept, police said on Thursday.
The accused, identified as Virendra (35), was so intoxicated that although he managed to carry
the woman’s body to his car, allegedly with the intention of disposing of it, he was unable to drive and returned home, they said.
A senior police officer privy to the investigation told media that a PCR call was received on the morning of November 26 from a neighbour, who noticed the woman’s body lying inside the car while the accused was asleep in the house.
