Sonarpur man kills wife over affair, surrenders to police claiming she plotted his murder

A man identified as Bapi Gayen surrendered at Sonarpur police station on Monday night after allegedly killing his wife, Priyanka Gayen. The incident took place in Mahesh Nagar under the jurisdiction of Sonarpur police station in South 24 Parganas district. Police have recovered Priyanka’s body and arrested Bapi based on his confession. A murder case has been registered and an investigation is underway.

According to police sources, Bapi, a resident of Herovanga in Canning, had married Priyanka—his former neighbour—around eight years ago. After marriage, he started working at a factory in Park Circus, and the couple moved into a rented house in Mahesh Nagar. A man named Suprakash Das and his wife lived in the adjacent house. Police said that over time, Suprakash developed a relationship with Priyanka. Eventually, Suprakash shifted to a different location with his wife, but his connection with Priyanka reportedly continued. They used to meet occasionally in a rented house in the Dhanmath area.

Bapi told the police that he overheard Priyanka and Suprakash speaking over the phone and claimed they were plotting to kill him. He then decided to kill Priyanka and later surrendered at the police station. Police have recovered Priyanka’s body and taken it for post-mortem examination. Suprakash's role in the case is being looked into, and further legal procedures are ongoing.
