Ex-Lover Arrested in Bhopal Teen's Throat-Slit Death Within 24 Hours

Police say forensic findings with a confession point to a planned killing over her recent engagement.

Overview

  • Roshni, 19, was found with her throat slit in her locked Panchsheel Nagar room, where a shaving blade lay beside her body.
  • A post-mortem indicated use of a larger sharp weapon, leading investigators to treat the case as homicide rather than suicide.
  • TT Nagar police arrested neighbour and ex-lover Mubeen Khan, 20, who confessed during interrogation.
  • Investigators say he entered via a neighbouring terrace by lifting a tin shade, staged the scene with a blade, locked the room from inside, and fled the same way.
  • Police recovered the knife at his instance, produced him in court, secured remand, and continue examining forensic samples and digital records.
