Police in Kanpur have arrested the son of a murdered businessman, alleging he orchestrated the killing after initially pointing to his daughter-in-law as the prime suspect, according to a Times of India report. The victim, 63-year-old Vineet Minocha, was found dead at his home in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh.
Investigators say the son, who has not been named in the report, plotted the murder over a property dispute and attempted to frame his wife. The daughter-in-law was initially detained but later released after evidence shifted the focus to the son.
The case has drawn widespread attention due to the dramatic reversal in the investigation. Police have not yet released further details about the evidence that led to the son's arrest, and the investigation is ongoing.
