Property dealer hires killer to eliminate wife, children

Agra. He first entered into an extra-marital relationship and when his wife got a whiff of this, this man did not hesitate to hire a contract killer to eliminate his entire family.
This may seem like a film plot but this heinous crime actually took place in Agra on Monday night when a local property dealer got his family murdered including his young wife and two kids aged four and seven.
Faced with charges of quadruple murder, Sunderlal, a resident of Sikandra in Agra, claims it was his wife who had illicit relations with his cousin Rajvir whose dead body was also found on the railway tracks along with the badly mangled bodies of his wife and children on Tuesday morning. He claims Pinki, his wife, had run away from home late on Monday evening and committed suicide on the same night with her "lover" Rajvir along with both his kids too.
However, the Agra Police tells a different story. According to Sikandra police station incharge Abhay Singh, the police had taken Sunderlal along with two others into custody even though initially it appeared to be a suicide case but the police were also pursuing the possibility of this being a case of mass murder.
According to Mr Singh, the police received information that Sunderlal had illicit relations with a girl whose identity was still unknown and somehow Pinki got a scent of this. Sunderlal's neighbours too admit hearing late-night quarrels between the couple. To make it seem like an incident of an illicit love affair culminating in suicide, Sunderlal got the bodies of his wife, kids and Rajvir, Pinki's alleged "lover" thrown on the railway tracks.
According to a local forensic expert, the dead bodies showed signs of injuries which indicated all the four had been dead when their bodies were hit by the train.
The bodies were very badly distorted but they showed no signs of the usual "cuts" that are common features of all such suicidal cases, which indicated the four had been murdered before being thrown on the tracks.
Surprisingly, Pinki's father Premlal refrained from pressing criminal charges against Sunderlal following which, the police is now moving ahead with filing a case by itself.
