BENGALURU: Electronics City police have arrested two persons, including a man’s wife and her lover, for allegedly conspiring to murder him and staging his death as a heart attack. Based on the complaint, police initially registered an Unnatural Death Report (UDR) case. However, after receiving the post-mortem examination report, police learnt that Upendra had died of suffocation. They began investigating the death from various angles and gathered crucial information that raised suspicions about the circumstances surrounding it. During interrogation, he confessed to being in a relationship with Anitha. Both accused were produced before a court and subsequently remanded to seven days of police custody for further interrogation.
On November 5, police summoned Reddy for questioning in connection with the case.
