Police arrested a 40-year-old woman, Saroj Mehra, her lover Mahendra Mehra, and an accomplice for murdering her third husband, Tulsiram.

The accused conspired to eliminate him in June 2026 because the wife wanted to marry her fourth lover.

Investigators discovered that after her two previous marriages, Saroj had developed an extramarital relationship with Mahendra and actively sought to marry him.

Saroj Mehra was first married in 2004. She later left her first marriage and remarried. After her second husband’s death, she married Tulsiram for the third time in 2006.

During this time, she also began a love affair with Mahendra Mehra. Police say this love affair later developed into a murder plot.

This case is from the Narsinghpur Kotwali police station area. According to the police, on the night of June 27th and 28th, Saroj Mehra, conspired with her lover Mahendra Mehra and his accomplice Vishnu to murder her husband Tulsiram.

Mahendra Mehra lured Tulsiram to National Highway 44 on the pretext of a feast.

He was then lured into bushes where he was strangled to death with a rope. The accused fled the scene after the murder.
