Murdered, salt was sprinkled, buried the body, and... made a grave for the elder brother in the courtyard
A shocking murder case in Jhansi has revealed that a younger brother killed his elder brother and attempted to conceal the crime by burying the body in their backyard.
In the shocking murder case reported from the Bihari Pura locality of the Nagara Prem Nagar police station area in Jhansi, a younger brother allegedly killed his MBA-qualified elder brother following a dispute that escalated into verbal abuse. Initially thought to be a disappearance case, police investigations unveiled a cold-blooded murder. The suspect is charged with meticulously plotting the act and trying to eliminate all evidence by burying the body behind their house, even going so far as to sprinkle salt on it to prevent it from being discovered.
This tragic incident unfolded within a family that has already endured significant hardship, having lost their father in a road accident in 2022. The family comprised a mother and her two sons. The older son, Tariq Beg, aged 38, was preparing for competitive exams and was on the verge of receiving a job through compassionate appointment following his fatherโs death. However, he refused a position as a peon, which led to heightened tensions when the same job was later offered to his younger brother, Masharikh, further straining family relations.
The implications of this case extend beyond just the horrific act of murder; it sheds light on the dynamics of familial relationships under pressure, particularly in the context of financial and emotional strains following the loss of a family member. The local community is now gripped with fear and disbelief, illustrating how internal family conflicts can escalate to tragic consequences, leading to severe criminal actions.
