A city-based man has lodged an FIR at Shastri Nagar police station, alleging that his wife and her alleged lover conspired to murder him, threatened to implicate him in false criminal cases, and fled with gold and silver jewellery worth lakhs of rupees. Police confirmed that the FIR was registered on Saturday.
Details of the Complaint
According to the complaint, the couple got married in February 2025. However, the woman allegedly continued a relationship with another man even after the marriage. The complainant stated, “She used to remain on phone calls with the alleged lover late into the night and frequently took money from him on various pretexts, including online transfers.”
The husband further alleged that after he discovered the relationship and stopped giving her money, the alleged lover began pressuring her to eliminate him. On January 6, 2026, the alleged lover called his wife and allegedly instructed her to kill him quickly. Subsequently, while he was asleep at night, his wife tied both his legs tightly with a dupatta and attempted to tie his hands. However, he woke up during the act and questioned her. She allegedly dismissed it as a joke, saying she could not sleep.
Escape and Missing Report
According to police, the complainant further alleged that after realizing he had become suspicious, the woman fled from the house with her alleged lover, taking gold and silver jewellery kept at the residence. Initially, the man lodged a missing person report after his wife left home. He later approached the police station with a detailed complaint after failing to trace her.
Threats and Legal Action
The complainant also alleged that the woman and her alleged lover were pressuring him for a divorce and threatening to implicate him in false dowry and other criminal cases if he refused. An officer stated, “We have lodged an FIR and will take the statements of the victim and take further legal action.”
