Pregnant Woman Murdered in Rohtak: Boyfriend Arrested After Confession

In a tragic incident in Rohtak, Haryana, a 21-year-old man named Sanju, alias Salim, has been arrested for allegedly murdering his pregnant girlfriend, Sonia Kumari, 19, and burying her body in a field. The crime has sent shockwaves through the community.

Relationship Turned Tragic

Sonia had reportedly been pressuring Sanju to marry her, but he refused, citing objections from his family. The victim’s family revealed that Sonia, who was pregnant, wanted to keep the baby, while Sanju insisted on an abortion.

On Karwa Chauth (October 21), Sonia visited Sanju, hoping to convince him to marry her. The next day, she left home with cash and personal belongings, only to be found dead soon after.

Police Investigation

The investigation began when Sonia’s brother, Manish, reported her missing on October 22, suspecting Sanju’s involvement. During interrogation, Sanju confessed to the crime, revealing that he, along with two accomplices—Pankaj Kumar and Ritik—buried Sonia’s body in Madina village.

Timeline of Events:

• October 21: Sonia visits Sanju on Karwa Chauth, urging him to marry her.
• October 22: Sonia goes missing; her brother Manish files a missing person report.

Family Demands Justice

Sonia’s mother has demanded strict action against the accused, expressing shock at the betrayal. “My daughter was a social media influencer, making videos on different platforms. She had trusted this man, only to find out later that his real name was Salim,” she said.

The victim’s brother-in-law added that Sanju had initially used a false identity to get close to Sonia. “We want justice for her. The culprits should face the harshest punishment,” he said.

The police have registered a case, and further investigation is underway.
