Bengaluru, March 15: The Koramangala police have registered a case of murder against a city-based software engineer for the alleged murder of an air hostess who had come to meet him at his apartment on March 11.
The deceased Archana Dhiman, 25, from Himachal Pradesh, came to Bengaluru from Dubai just four days prior to the incident. She was staying with Aadesh at an apartment in Koramangala.
Based on the complaint filed by the family of the deceased accusing Aadesh of murdering her, the police have registered a case of murder and are questioning the accused. According to the police, the duo stayed in the apartment and had a party a few minutes before the incident. The circumstantial evidence gathered from the scene of crime pointed towards Aadesh indicating that he had murdered her by pushing her from the balcony of his apartment on the fourth floor, the police said.
The police have also seized mobile phones and other gadgets belonging to the accused for analysis. The accused has a history of trapping girls and cheating them, a police officer said.
Meanwhile, the police are awaiting the Post Mortem and FSL reports to corroborate with the primary evidence gathered from the scene of crim and preliminary investigations.
Aadesh had tried to project the incident of the death of Archana Dhiman as that of an accidental fall from the balcony in an inebriated condition. He tried to mislead the police by concocting various theories but intense interrogation made the police believe that this could be a murder and the accused is none other than Aadesh.
“We are trying to piece together the primary evidence with the FSL and Post Mortem report. We have recreated the scene at the apartment. Once, we are convinced that this is a murder, then we will find out the motive behind this,” a senior police officer said.
