Telangana Trio Arrested for YouTube-Taught Pesticide-in-Ear Murder

Investigators traced call records, CCTV footage, location data to reveal Ramadevi enlisted her lover with an accomplice to pour pesticide into her intoxicated husband’s ear after repeated drunken disputes

Overview

  • Telangana Police have taken Ramadevi, her lover Karan Rajayya and his friend Srinivas into judicial custody for the murder of Ramadevi’s husband, Sampath, a library cleaner.
  • The suspects allegedly lured Sampath to a flyover, intoxicated him and poured pesticide into his ear, resulting in his immediate death.
  • Authorities secured confessions after analyzing phone logs, CCTV footage and location data that linked the trio to the crime.
  • A history of alcohol abuse and domestic quarrels between Sampath and Ramadevi provided the motive for the plot that Ramadevi learned by watching a YouTube video.
  • Ramadevi’s missing-person complaint and refusal to allow a postmortem, along with pressure from Sampath’s son, prompted a deeper probe that uncovered the plot.
