Bengaluru, May 30: Over a month after a 45-year-old woman went missing from Bidadi, the police have cracked the case with the arrest of her daughter, who reportedly confessed to having murdered her mother.

bidadiRani (19) was arrested on Saturday after she told the police that she murdered her mother, Manjula, for opposing her “love affair”. The police also arrested her father, Thimmaiah, a petty shop owner, and uncle, Ananda (25), a construction labourer, for abetting the murder.

According to the police, Rani was having an affair with a local youth, identified as Narasimha. Manjula objected to this and had even started looking for a groom for her. Thimmaiah and Ananda had tried to convince Manjula to support Rani.

The police said that an enraged Rani decided to kill her mother so that she could marry Narasimha, and managed to convince Thimmaiah and Ananda to help her. The trio went to the farmhouse at Hebagere, Bidadi, where Manjula was working as caretaker and hacked her to death. They later buried the body in the backyard of the farmhouse.

They then spread the rumour that Manjula was missing. Meanwhile, Manjula's elder daughter, Pavithra, tried to reach her mother on the phone, but it was switched off. Suspecting something amiss, she filed a complaint with Bidadi police.

The police verified call detail records, and found that Thimmaiah was the last person to call Manjula. On interrogation, he confessed to the crime, following which Rani and Ananda were arrested. The trio have been remanded in judicial custody.
