Investigation Reveals Constable Fled Scene After Shooting Wife on Scooter

Authorities in Delhi have disclosed that a police constable is the prime suspect in the murder of his wife, whose body was found abandoned on a street in the Kalaupuri locality. The victim was identified as the officer’s spouse after the police recovered her identity during the inquiry.

According to the inquiry, the couple had been traveling together on a scooter when a fresh argument ignited. CCTV footage shows them stopping, arguing fiercely, and the constable pulling out his issued sidearm to fire at his partner.

The constable escaped the scene immediately, prompting police to start a wide‑scale search operation. Teams are sifting through surveillance recordings from adjacent streets to map his escape route.
