In the meantime, hearing the noise, neighbours woke up and rushed to Tiwari's house. By this time, the neighbours had come to know that Tiwari had killed his family members. Assuming that he was not in a sound state of mind, the villagers did not try to open the door. Instead they called the police, which rushed to spot and got the door opened and arrested Tiwari.
The police recovered an axe and two knives used in the crime.
Police quoting Tiwari said that he had been suspecting his wife to be a woman of easy virtue, even though he admitted before the police that he never saw her doing anything wrong nor did he ever hear anything about his wife from anyone. However, this suspicion on his wife went deep into his mind, the police said.
The accused had been planning the murder of his wife for a long time, the police said and added the fact could be corroborated from the recovery of a bag containing a chopper wrapped in a towel from the room.
Tiwari, according to Purkalandar police, had been working as a mechanic in some medical equipment factory in Lucknow till only recently. However, Tiwari left the job in Lucknow about over a month back and was working somewhere else in Faizabad, the police said.
