In Kanpur's Cantt area, a shocking incident unfolded on Sunday evening when a 28-year-old woman was shot and killed in the presence of her young daughter. The victim, identified as Chandni, was rushed to KPM Hospital but was tragically declared dead by medical professionals.
The violence erupted following a domestic dispute between Chandni's sister, Sarojni, and her husband, Santosh. An argument escalated, leading to Santosh's brother, Vinod, allegedly intervening with the intent to attack Sarojni. Chandni's attempt to de-escalate the situation proved fatal when she was shot.
Santosh reportedly harbored resentment towards Chandni since Sarojni initiated divorce proceedings two years prior and returned to her parental home. He is accused of frequently assaulting Sarojni while under the influence of alcohol. Authorities have initiated an extensive search for the six individuals believed to be involved in this deadly event.
