Delhi Police Arrest Man After 26 Years in 1998 Murder CasePreviousNext

Delhi Police arrested 62-year-old Vishwanath Singh, who had been evading arrest for over 26 years in a 1998 murder case. Initially treated as a road accident, the case was later reclassified as murder after investigations revealed Singh allegedly killed his neighbor, Jai Prakash, over suspicions of an affair with his wife. Singh was declared a proclaimed offender in 2001 and was traced through surveillance before his arrest in northeast Delhi's Shiv Vihar area on October 30.
