Friend and Wife Arrested in Ludhiana Drum Killing

CCTV footage ties two suspects to the dumping, with motive to be determined after questioning.

Overview

  • Police arrested Shamsher Singh alias Shera and his wife Kuldeep Kaur on Friday in the case of a man whose dismembered remains were found near the Jalandhar Bypass.
  • Additional DCP Sameer Verma said an argument after consuming intoxicants preceded a fatal attack with a sharp-edged weapon, which has been recovered.
  • CCTV footage shows the suspects transporting a white drum on a bike before the victim’s head was found in the drum and other parts were located nearby.
  • Investigators say the body was cut up and disposed of at multiple spots to destroy evidence, and police stated the wife’s role was limited to helping dump the remains.
  • The victim, identified as Davinder, had recently returned from Mumbai, and the discovery follows another unresolved case involving a charred body found in Ludhiana this week.
