Two women, who were known to the 50-year-old cable TV operator Tarun Bajaj, purportedly killed him. New Rajinder Nagar-based businessman was found brutally murdered at his residence on Wednesday. The accused had been visiting his residence for quite some time. Along with their two aides, the women murdered Bajaj for money as they had learnt he had deep pockets.
All the four accused persons identified as Sooraj, alias Sahil (24), Mohit Sharma, alias Sunny (19), Pooja (26) and Munni, alias Moni (19) have been arrested. Sooraj and Pooja are a married couple with a six-month-old son. Sooraj is Pooja’s second husband. “Moni, who works in a beauty salon, was the first to be arrested from her home in Sultanpuri. Her interrogation led to the arrest of the other accused who had fled to Dehradun in Uttarakhand. These arrests were made on Saturday morning,” said Joint Commissioner of Police (Central) Sandeep Goel.
During investigation, police examined footage of CCTV cameras installed in the area and found two men on a motorcycle who had reached the spot wearing shirts but were seen leaving the place in T-shirts. From the phone records of Bajaj, police zeroed in on one Pinky, another alleged call girl, who had been in constant touch with Bajaj on her mobile phone. Pinky denied her role in the crime but sounded out the cops on the accused wanting her to be a partner-in-crime. But, she had a change of heart. Or maybe she got cold feet.
Interrogation of the accused revealed that Pooja and Moni used to visit Bajaj’s home for the past year-and-a-half. Since the two women were aware of Bajaj’s sound financial health and that he kept his cash at home, they hatched a plan with Pooja’s husband Sahil to rob Bajaj; Sunny too was roped in. Police sources also reveal Tarun Bajaj was stabbed during sexual intercourse.
