Agartala, Jun 14: In a breakthrough development, Tripura Police conducted a detailed crime scene reconstruction with two murder accused who revealed how jealousy and romantic rivalry led them to commit a calculated killing.

According to the investigation, the murder stemmed from a complex love triangle situation. Shariful had been involved in a romantic relationship with Nabanita, but complications arose between the couple. Subsequently, the woman began a romantic relationship with her cousin brother Dr. Dibakar Saha, creating the volatile situation that ultimately led to murder.

The crime was executed on the night of June 8th when Dr. Saha lured Shariful to Joydip’s house in South Indranagar under the false pretense of giving him a gift. Animesh Yadav (21) and Nabanita were already positioned at the location as part of the conspiracy. Dr. Saha murdered Shariful by strangling him at the residence, demonstrating the calculated nature of their approach.

Meanwhile, the crime scene reconstruction yielded additional crucial information that police will present in court proceedings. Law enforcement officials are continuing intensive interrogations of the two identified masterminds to determine whether other individuals participated in the conspiracy. The investigation remains active as authorities work to ensure all aspects of the case are thoroughly examined.

The investigation team has declined to provide additional details about the ongoing inquiry, maintaining that further information will be disclosed through appropriate legal channels as the case progresses through the judicial system.
