Along with murder and other relevant IPC charges, the accused have been slapped with gangrape charges. Police said that the victim was strangled to death. Police said that the letter found near the victim’s body held three men responsible for her murder but police didn’t find any connection between the girl and those men. The police also informed that a mobile phone was also found near the body. “It was a conspiracy by accused Dinesh and Dhirender to frame the men mentioned in the letter due to a personal enmity. The deceased was a friend of Dinesh’s friend. They called her on the pretext of a job, made her write that letter, and murdered her,” said DCP (south-east) Chinmoy Biswal. “Dinesh and Dhirender were in Tihar jail and had an enmity with inmate Bunty. After being released from the jail, they made a plan to frame Bunty’s brother Aarush in a murder case with an intention to take revenge and acquire his land. Accused have confessed of gang-rape. Dhirender is absconding,” said Biswal. He said the accused strangled her to death on Tuesday morning and also used the woman’s phone to call Aarush a few times to frame him for her murder.
