Police have arrested a Kolkata couple for killing a Pune businessman at a posh hotel in Guwahati over the possession of intimate pictures on Monday.
The incident came to light after 42-year-old Sandip Kambli, a trader from Pune, was found dead at a posh hotel in Guwahati.
Police investigation revealed that Kambli had engaged in an altercation with 25-year-old Anjali Shaw, who works at a restaurant in the Kolkata Airport, and her boyfriend Rakesh Shaw at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Guwahati on Monday afternoon.
Police said the altercation was the result of a complex relationship dynamic. Kambli had developed a relationship with Anjali and pressured her to marry him. Kambli allegedly possessed Anjali’s intimate photos, too.
Anjali, who already had a boyfriend (Rakesh Shaw), confided in him about Kambli’s advances and the existence of intimate photographs taken by Kambli. Concerned about the potential repercussions of the images, the couple devised a plan to confront Kambli and retrieve the photos.
Kambli and Anjali agreed to meet at the Kolkata airport, but Kambli redirected Anjali to Guwahati, where he had booked a room at the Radisson Blu Hotel for the duo. Meanwhile, Rakesh also booked a separate room at the same hotel.
Upon Rakesh’s arrival at the hotel room, a confrontation ensued between the trio, resulting in a physical altercation that left Kambli unconscious and injured. Anjali and Rakesh fled the scene, leaving behind Kambli’s belongings.
Upon being informed about the dead body of the Pune man in the hotel room by staffers, police reached the spot and reviewed the CCTV footage, guest lists, and airport passenger manifests. The police were able to locate and arrest Shaw and Anjali, who were preparing to leave for Kolkata, near Azara, bringing the incident to a close.
