In a disturbing turn of events from Farrukhabad, Uttar Pradesh, a 35-year-old woman named Alka was killed by a hitman she had hired to murder her 17-year-old daughter. Alka had become frustrated with her daughter’s behavior and offered 38-year-old Subhash Singh ₹50,000 to kill her. However, she was unaware that Subhash was her daughter’s secret lover.

Murder plan backfires

Alka’s daughter had previously eloped with a local man, but unbeknownst to her mother, she had begun a new relationship with Subhash after being sent to live with her maternal family. When Alka discovered phone calls between the two, she decided to take matters into her own hands. On September 27, she paid Subhash to kill her daughter.

The lover's betrayal

Instead of following through with Alka's instructions, Subhash revealed the murder plot to the teenager. The daughter, in a shocking twist, proposed a sinister alternative: Subhash should kill her mother instead, and in return, she promised to marry him. Both confessed to their involvement in Alka’s murder during police questioning. The pair was arrested on Wednesday, leaving the police stunned at the dark nature of the crime.
