The police arrested those who had planned to kill advocate Chhaviraj Kumari with the ‘supari’ (contract) amount and two countrymade pistols. The murder plot was hatched by the nephew of the advocate who had hired killers to eliminate his aunt. Property dispute is the reason behind this murder plot.
The Shankargarh police and the trans-Yamuna SOG arrested three persons, including the supari killer, and recovered from Rs 1.50 lakh in cash, two pistols, live cartridges, mobile phones and a bike. All the three have been sent to jail.
On an information that a supari killer is being contacted by some people to kill an advocate, the police team raided Shankargarh railway station where the money was being handed over to a history- sheeter. Buddhiraj Singh alias Raj Singh of Kohadiya village under Shankargarh police station, Rohit Kesarvani of Jari Bazar Kaundhiyara and ‘supari’ killer Bhumiraj Singh of Diha Uparhaar Karchhana have been arrested by the police in this connection.
Reports said there is a dispute over 35 bighas of land between Kamlakar Singh and his sister Chhaviraj Kumari, who is an advocate and lives in Prayagraj. It is alleged that the woman advocate and one of her brothers Ratnakar did not agree to hand over the above land to Kamlakar Singh. The son of Kamlakar, Buddhiraj, decided to eliminate his aunt. He discussed the matter with his friend Rohit Kesarwani and they decided to hire a ‘supari’ killer.
They approached gangster Bhumiraj Singh and the contract killer demanded Rs 2 lakh. An advance payment of Rs 50,000 was made to ensure execution of the plan, but the killer refused to do the job till the full payment was made. To pay the remaining amount they planned to meet at the Shankargarh railway station, but the police got information about it and arrested them.
