Seerat, the prime accused in the case, was arrested on Sunday for shooting her husband dead at their residence in Phase III-A-1 of Mohali. She had surrendered to the police and confessed to her crime.
“We checked many CCTV cameras in the locality, but did not get this footage earlier. The cameras installed at Ekam’s home were not working. We have obtained the footage from a neighbour’s house who is living a few metres away from Ekam’s residence. However, there is no footage of Saturday night when Seerat’s brother Vinay Partap and his friend Jagat came to her home,” said a police officer.
Ekam was shot dead by his wife, who stashed his body in a suitcase, placed it in a car and then vanished from the place.
The police was informed about the incident by an auto-rickshaw driver whose help was sought by the accused Seerat Kaur to put the suitcase in the dicky of the car.
The auto-rickshaw driver told the police that he was stopped by the woman and asked to help place the heavy suitcase in the car, and while placing the suitcase, his hands were stained with blood. Sensing that something was not right, he informed the police.
