A man in Nagpur was found dead after a staged roadside accident. Police say he was murdered by his wife and a friend.
A 45‑year‑old man was discovered dead near a busy intersection in Nagpur after what appeared to be a roadside collision. Investigators quickly noted inconsistencies in the scene that suggested foul play.
Nagpur Police launched an inquiry, collecting evidence from the site and interviewing witnesses. Preliminary findings indicate that the victim’s wife and an associate were involved in the incident.
The body was positioned to mimic the aftermath of a vehicular crash, with nearby debris and a damaged vehicle used to create the illusion of an accident. This staging was intended to divert suspicion from a homicide.
The police have detained the wife and the friend on suspicion of murder and are reviewing forensic reports to confirm the cause of death. The case remains under active investigation.
