Man calls mom before killing lover, cops find clip on mobile

MEERUT: A 25-year-old man allegedly strangled his girlfriend, 28, to death out of anger because she was also seeing someone else. Police said that just before he went out for the murder, he called up his mother and told her: “I’m going to kill my love, don’t wait for me.” Cops investigating the case have recovered the purported audio clip from his possession.

The crime was committed in UP’s Meerut district on December 23 and the matter came to light a day later when the victim’s body was found lying in her rented accommodation by her landlord, who then informed the police.

The accused has now been arrested. A senior police officer said Shiva Singh was in a relationship with one Sonia for the past eight months. Sonia lived in a rented accommodation in Shivpuri area and used to make idols in Pallavpuram to eke out a living.

The officer said that during interrogation, Shiva confessed to his crime and said he killed his girlfriend as he did not like her meeting another man.
