Bangalore man kills ex-employer to marry his wife

Bangalore man kills ex-employer to marry his wife
Bangalore: The Bangalore police have arrested a 21-year-old man and his friend for murdering the former's ex-employer, Tulsiraman.

Preliminary investigations have revealed that Sunil Kumar had been eyeing Tulsiraman's wife Manjula for a long time, and killed his former boss when Manjula didn't reciprocate his feelings. The police have sent the duo to judicial custody.

Sunil had come to Tulsiraman looking for a job two years ago. Tulsiraman was a mason, and he readily offered Sunil a job as his assistant. Soon, Sunil proved his worth -- he was good at his job, and also held Tulsiraman in the highest esteem. Tulsiraman too, trusted his assistant.

The two had decided to start a business of their own. Tulsiraman used to invite Sunil over to his house occasionally, where they would have a casual drink. He would often have a chat with Manjula, and she didn't mind, because he was a regular visitor to the house, and her husband trusted Sunil.

But Manjula noticed the sudden change in his behaviour, and started avoiding him.

Soon, Tulsiraman noticed it as well, and asked Sunil to stay away from his wife. He also fired Sunil from the job.

But Sunil didn't stop going over to their house. Moreover, Sunil had lent Tulsiraman some money, and began asking him to return it, which Tulsiraman refused.

Following this incident, Sunil started drinking heavily, and was arrested for two separate incidents -- transferring country liquor, and threatening a doctor. In jail, he cooked up a theory that the misfortune was caused by Tulsiraman, and decided to kill him.

In his delusions, he thought that after Tulsiraman was dead, he would marry Manjula. He roped in a friend Kalidas, and told him that Tulsiraman would have to die because of some business differences.

On November 21, while Tulsiraman was returning home from work, Sunil and Kalidas attacked him with sharp weapons, and killed him.

When he didn't return home, Tulsiraman's mother filed a complaint with the KG Halli police station. The police cracked the case within a week, and arrested the murdering duo. KG Halli PI T Rangappa said, "We have sent the two to judicial custody."
