According to officials, the man entered the woman’s PG facility in Noida and fired at her with an unlicensed pistol, killing her on the spot. He reportedly fled immediately afterward, discarding the weapon in Sector 85 before escaping the city. Police said the suspect had previously been imprisoned in a ₹90-lakh theft case, and after his release, the victim had distanced herself from him, which appears to have triggered the violent confrontation.
Noida Phase-2 police confirmed that the illegal pistol used in the crime has been recovered from the accused. Officers added that they are examining the suspect’s activities, background, and possible connections that might shed further light on the circumstances leading to the murder. The investigation is ongoing, with authorities working to map the full sequence of events and assess whether others may have been involved.
The arrest brings a crucial breakthrough in a case that has stirred concern over personal safety in shared accommodations and highlighted the growing challenges law enforcement faces in tackling crimes involving illicit firearms. Police say further updates will follow as the inquiry progresses.
