Bangaluru, Sept 16: Bangaluru, Sept 16: The police have managed to crack the sensational case of hand-chopping of a man in Bannerghatta on September 11, and arrested four persons including the mastermind- a woman traffic constable, who was also present with the victim when the incident took place.
The police team probing the case had on April 14 managed to arrest two suspects Viji alias Mental (22) and his associate Anandha (19). While interrogating the duo, the police came to know that Jayalakshmi, a 27-year-old traffic police officer attached to the VV Puram traffic police station, had actually set up the crime to ensure that her lover would not marry other women.
The duo also confessed to the police that Jayalakshmi promised Rs 1.5 lakh for her lover Veeresh’s maiming and paid Rs 15,000 advance to Ananda’s father Kumar, a well-known rowdy in Shambupalaya in the VV Puram area. After this revelation, the police arrested Ananda and Jayalakshmi too.
Deputy Superintendent of Police Umesh S K said that Jayalakshmi even organised a rehearsal of the crime a week before it happened when she took Veeresh (23) to Suvarnamukhi Temple and allowed time for Kumar, Viji and Ananda to fine-tune their attack of Veeresh.
On the day of the incident, Jayalakshmi was sitting with Veeresh on a rock when the trio sliced off his right hand and ran away with it.
The sliced hand was recovered the following day in a pit at an isolated forest area, 300 metres from the place where they hacked Veeresh. The attackers also threw Veeresh’s mobile phone along with the machete they used in the attack into the pit.
1 hubby and 2 lovers
Jayalakshmi had a complicated love affair with Veeresh. When her parents objected to her relationship, she married Raghavendra. But the officer continued her love affair with Veeresh post-marriage, learning of which Raghavendra divorced her.
Jayalakshmi then started forcing Veeresh to marry her, but he hesitated to become her second husband. Her attention then fell on another man, Raghu. But she broke off with Raghu having learnt that he was a divorcee and again veered towards Veeresh. This time he was more reluctant to marry her. Then she decided to make a handicap. Reason was simple: he should marry no one else.
Tried to escape
On Saturday, the Bengaluru district police opened fire at Viji as he tried to escape from while being taken to the temple to locate the machete used in Veeresh’s hacking. DSP Umesh fired in the air when Viji, taken on chains, pried loose and attacked the officers. Umesh fired on his leg and immobilised him. The accused was taken to a hospital.
