The accused have been identified as Virender, a resident of Sardulgarh in Punjab’s Mansa and presently living in Hansi, and Manjeet of Fatehabad. The accused were produced before a local court which sent them to two-day police remand.

Hansi city police station house officer (SHO) Sadanand said that they have recovered the knife used in the crime. The SHO said that during the probe, the accused told them that the deceased Pankaj of Siwani in Bhiwani district had illicit relations with Virender’s wife.

“After suspecting Pankaj’s relations with his wife, the main accused Virender hatched a conspiracy to kill him. He called Pankaj to Hisar civil hospital on January 13 telling him that the former’s brother is undergoing an operation. Then, he asked Pankaj to accompany him to bring money from Hansi. The accused told his brother and friend Manjeet to stay in Hansi,” the SHO added.
