Chennai, Dec 2: When two patrolling policemen stopped a man along a Vadapalani street early on Wednesday, a mask around his face and wearing a wig, they didn't know they had intercepted a killer.

murderHe pushed them aside and tried to flee but two other policemen caught him and found a blood-stained knife and a pair of gloves in his bag. The patrolmen took the youth to the Vadapalani police station where he identified himself as I Naveenton Karthick Leon, 25, and said he had murdered Gopalakrishnan, a chartered accountant, on Bhakthavatchalam Second Street.

He also said he had tied up the slain man's wife and took away her jewellery.

Later, he admitted to committing the murder with the help of his girlfriend Bharati, Gopalakrishnan's wife, because he was in the way of their relationship. Police said Gopalakrishnan and Bharati got married two years ago. Their child was born a year later.

Leaving the child with her parents in Tiruvannamalai, Bharati stayed with her husband in Vadapalani and worked at a BPO centre in T Nagar. There she met Leon and they began a relationship. Gopalakrishnan soon learned about it and asked them to break it .

"They decided to murder him. Around 2am on Wednesday, Leon came in through the door Bharati had kept open, slit her husband's throat with the knife he had bought in Katpadi and later tied her to a chair using her dupatta," said a police officer. He took away her seven sovereign gold chain to make it appear like a murder for gain. He also sprayed sedatives around and asked Bharati to act as if she was unconscious.

When a police team arrived at her home, Bharati, unaware of Leon's arrest, continued to pretend she was partly unconscious. Even at the Government Royapettah Hospital, where she was taken, she said an unidentified man had murdered her husband.

Several of Bharati's neighbours said they hardly saw her. One of them, Gunasundari, said, "She usually went to office riding pillion on her husband's bike, her face covering by a dupatta." Police arrested Leon and Bharati and a court sent them to jail.
