Andhra man killed by father-in-law for having an affair with wife's sister
In a shocking incident, an Andhra Pradesh man allegedly murdered his son-in-law, beheading and dismembering his body, after finding out about his affair as well as a property dispute, media reports said.
He allegedly paid his friend Rs. 4 lakh to help him get his son-in-law murdered.
The victim, identified as Vishwanath from Dharmavaram, got married to Venkataramanappa's elder daughter, Shyamala, 20 years ago. However, soon after, he started an affair with his wife's younger sister.
This ignited a fierce dispute within the family, leading to conflicts not only between Vishwanath and his wife but also between Venkataramanappa and his spouse.
Following family tensions, Vishwanath reportedly left Dharmavaram, with his sister-in-law and mother-in-law, for Kadiri, 78 km away.
Recently, he even allegedly attempted to sell land registered in his mother-in-law's name, which further angered Venkataramanappa.
Driven by an overwhelming rage, Venkataramanappa allegedly conspired to kill his son-in-law.
He took the help of his friend, Katamayya, and reportedly paid him Rs 4 lakh as a contract to carry out the murder.
Once Vishwanath arrived in Mudigubba, he was allegedly ambushed by Venkataramanappa, Katamayya, and three other accomplices. They reportedly took him to a secluded hilly area where they murdered him, beheading and dismembering his body.
Police investigation, aided by cell phone tower location data, which placed the phones of Venkataramanappa, Katamayya, and the three other individuals at the same location, led to their arrest.
