According to news agency PTI, the body of a man with his head crushed was discovered by cops in a drain under the jurisdiction of Anta Police Station on Friday.
The victim was identified as Dharmraj Bairwa, a 40-year-old labourer from Baran City near Kota.
The police registered a murder case and questioned Bairwa's wife Guddibai, as she was the primary suspect in the case. According to Baran Superintendent of Police Rajkumar Choudhary, Bairwa's 12-year-old daughter told the police that on the day of his disappearance, her father had received a call and was asked to meet someone at Trimurthi Circle, PTI reported.
Upon reviewing CCTV footage from the area, the police found the victim riding pillion with another man, later identified as Satyanarayan Bairwa, 47, a resident of the Simliya area. The police interrogated Satyanarayan, who allegedly confessed to killing Bairwa.
Satyanarayan revealed that he had been in love with Guddibai, his sister-in-law, even before her marriage. He claimed Bairwa was an alcoholic and frequently assaulted Guddibai after consuming liquor, leading the couple to conspire to kill him, Choudhary said.
