GREATER NOIDA: A woman allegedly murdered her husband along with her lover for getting ownership of two bighas land located along the Yamuna Expressway. The deceased, Charan Singh, a native of Mathura, had been working along with his brother-in-law in Rajasthan. His decision to sell the land prompted his wife to murder him and claim ownership of the plot.

Police said that the woman, Devendari, had been living on the plot in Jewar. She was having an affair with a neighbour Devender. When Charan came back, she called her lover and his friend Ram Kishan who got him drunk, stabbed him to death and buried him. They decided to frame his brother-in-law for the murder and lodged a case in Mathura.

Meanwhile, when Charan's brother-in-law could not locate him, he filed a missing complaint. Cops from Rajasthan soon came to Jewar and interrogated Devendari. She finally broke down and confessed to the murder. The body has been recovered.
