Delhi Police recently arrested a 29-year-old woman, Monika Verma, and her boyfriend Ashish (29) for the murder of her husband and mother-in-law. During the investigation, shocking details emerged, revealing that Monika killed them because they were blocking her extramarital affair.
Monika’s husband and in-laws discovered her relationship with Ashish after reading her intimate chats with him. This led to strict restrictions on her movements, including confiscating her smartphone and replacing it with a basic feature phone. Despite this, Monika and Ashish continued to meet in secret. Tensions escalated as her mother-in-law kept a close watch on her, which led Monika to plan their murder.
The Affair and Plot
Monika married Ravi in 2016, and they had a son together. Before marriage, she worked at a call center. In August 2020, Monika met Ashish, a bodybuilder and bouncer. Their relationship quickly deepened, and they began meeting at hotels. Even when Ashish’s mother discovered Monika was married, they refused to end their affair.
The situation intensified when Monika’s husband found her explicit chats with Ashish. Her mother-in-law, Veena, began keeping a close eye on her, leading to frequent arguments in the house. Monika later confessed that the constant surveillance made her feel like a prisoner, and she had no remorse for her actions.
The Plan to Murder
Monika started planning the murder in December 2022. On February 20, 2023, she and Ashish met at a hotel to finalize their plan. The opportunity came when Monika’s mother-in-law left for shopping. Monika called Ashish to their house and hid him on the terrace. Late at night, they executed the murder, killing her husband and mother-in-law while the rest of the family was asleep.
Investigation and Arrest
The crime was discovered early Monday morning when two bodies were found in the house. Neighbors reported frequent fights between Monika and her mother-in-law. CCTV footage also captured Ashish on his bike near the scene of the crime. After the police became suspicious, they questioned Monika, who eventually confessed to the murders.
