Triple Crime Shock: Navy Havildar Held for Dismembering Girlfriend in Visakhapatnam; Two Separate Murders Rock Delhi Over Relationship Disputes
Navy Havildar Arrested for Allegedly Killing and Dismembering Girlfriend in Visakhapatnam
In a chilling case reported from Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh, a Navy havildar has been arrested for allegedly murdering his girlfriend and dismembering her body while his wife was away at her parental home.
The accused, identified as Chintada Ravindra, a resident of L.V. Nagar in Gajuwaka, reportedly surrendered before the police and confessed to the crime.
According to investigators, Ravindra had been involved in an extramarital relationship with the victim, Mounika, since 2020.
Police said the relationship had become strained in recent months due to frequent arguments. The woman had allegedly begun pressuring Ravindra and threatening to reveal the affair to his wife if he did not give her money.
Police believe the crime was premeditated.
Ravindra allegedly purchased large knives in advance and invited Mounika to his residence on Sunday, taking advantage of the fact that his wife, who had recently delivered a baby, had been staying at her parents’ house in Rajam in Vizianagaram district for over a month.
During a heated argument, Ravindra allegedly stabbed Mounika to death. Investigators claim that he later dismembered the body and stored the parts inside a refrigerator in an attempt to conceal the crime.
Before surrendering to authorities, he allegedly disposed of the severed head and the victim’s mobile phone by burning them in an isolated location to destroy evidence.
Police recovered the dismembered remains from the refrigerator and took Ravindra into custody. Forensic teams are examining the evidence, while investigators are reconstructing the sequence of events leading up to the crime.
Youth Arrested for Allegedly Killing Girlfriend in Central Delhi Hotel
In a separate incident in the national capital, Delhi Police arrested a 24-year-old man, identified as Abhishek, for allegedly murdering his girlfriend inside a hotel room in the Lahori Gate area of Central Delhi.
Police sources stated that the accused and the victim were in a relationship, and the woman had reportedly been insisting that he marry her. Investigators suspect that the accused, unwilling to commit to marriage, planned the murder.
According to the police, Abhishek took the woman to a hotel where they checked into a room together. During their stay, he allegedly strangled her to death. After committing the crime, he reportedly locked the room from the outside and fled, attempting to avoid suspicion.
Hotel staff became suspicious when there was no response from inside the room for a prolonged period.
After repeated attempts to contact the occupants failed, the hotel management informed the police.
Officers broke open the door and found the woman lying on the bed in a semi-nude condition.
A forensic team examined the crime scene and collected evidence. The body was sent for post-mortem examination.
Based on technical leads and circumstantial evidence, police tracked down the accused and arrested him. Further interrogation is underway to determine the full circumstances surrounding the murder.
Man Allegedly Kills Wife with LPG Cylinder in South-East Delhi After Domestic Dispute
In another disturbing incident reported from the Pul Prahladpur area of South-East Delhi, a man has been arrested for allegedly murdering his wife by repeatedly attacking her with an LPG cylinder following a domestic dispute.
The victim, identified as 32-year-old Poonam, was originally from Churu district in Rajasthan.
Her husband, Suresh Kumar, had recently moved to Delhi in search of employment and had managed to secure a job. The couple had two daughters.
Their four-year-old daughter had been left in their native place with relatives, while their one-and-a-half-year-old child was present at home at the time of the incident.
According to police, neighbours heard loud arguments coming from the flat and sensed that something was wrong.
When the commotion suddenly stopped, they alerted the police. Upon reaching the spot, officers found Poonam lying dead on the floor with multiple head injuries.
Investigators believe she was repeatedly struck on the head with the heavy LPG cylinder.
Police said Suresh Kumar was present near the body when officers arrived. Neighbours informed investigators that the couple frequently argued over domestic issues, and loud quarrels were often heard from their residence.
Police arrested Suresh Kumar on charges of murder and informed the victim’s family members.
Statements of neighbours were recorded, and the body was sent to the mortuary for post-mortem examination. Authorities are further investigating the circumstances that led to the fatal assault.
Concern Over Rise in Relationship-Related Crimes
The three incidents, reported within a short span of time, have raised concerns about the increasing number of violent crimes arising from strained personal relationships, including extramarital affairs, pressure for marriage, financial disputes, and domestic conflicts.
Law enforcement officials emphasise the need for early intervention in cases involving repeated disputes, threats, or emotional coercion.
Experts suggest that timely counselling, mediation, or legal assistance may help prevent escalation of conflicts into violent crimes.
Police in all three cases are continuing investigations, including forensic analysis and examination of digital evidence, to ensure that strong charges are presented in court.
Authorities have reiterated that individuals facing relationship disputes should seek lawful and peaceful solutions, as violent acts carry serious legal consequences under criminal law.
