In a shocking development, Delhi Police have arrested Ashok Kumar Sen, a former caretaker, for the brutal murder of an elderly couple in East Delhi’s Shahdara area. The suspect was apprehended in Rajasthan after a dramatic 500-kilometer police chase.
The investigation, initially hindered by limited evidence, advanced through careful police work, including analysis of mobile records, CCTV footage, and suspect interrogations. Authorities determined that Sen had exploited his previous employment with the victims and identified gaps in the home’s security to commit the crime without leaving obvious forensic traces.
According to investigators, Sen’s motive was financial gain. He reportedly planned the robbery meticulously, studying CCTV blind spots and taking precautions to avoid detection. Delhi Police continue to investigate the case to determine whether he had any accomplices involved in the crime.
