New Delhi: The Delhi Police is probing the angle of personal enmity in the brutal murder of a woman and her 13-year-old son in southeast Delhi's Govindpuri area on Thursday. Investigators suspect that the killers were known to the victims, as both were stabbed multiple times, indicating the attack might have been driven by deep-seated anger. Police have detained a person known to the family for questioning.
No Sign of Forced Entry
Police also noted the absence of any sign of forced entry at the residence. "We suspect the accused entered through the main gate without any difficulty. He is believed to have spent a few minutes sitting on the sofa before attacking them in the kitchen," a source said.
Husband Examined, Property Dispute Probed
The woman's husband has been examined by the police. Authorities are also probing a possible property dispute angle that may have led to the crime.
Missing Valuables Under Scrutiny
While family members alleged that valuables worth Rs 30-40 lakh were missing, police have stated that the actual amount appears to be around Rs 5 lakh in cash and jewellery worth approximately Rs 15 lakh. "The woman's purse, lying close to the spot, still had Rs 90,000," an officer said.
The investigation is ongoing, with police examining all possible motives, including personal enmity and property disputes.
