    Police constable kills Girlfriend, roams in car for a day: Arrested
    The tragedy was discovered on Tuesday after an informer alerted the police to a car with a woman's body travelling around the lonely Nevali area near Kalyan. Police raced to the scene, discovered a dead body in the automobile, and brought her to Ulhasnagar's Central Hospital before seizing the vehicle.

    Digital Desk: A 39-year-old
    police policeman and his brother-in-law were detained in Ulhasnagar for the
    murder of a 51-year-old nurse with whom the officer had an illegal
    relationship.

    Sachin Khajekar, a constable,
    strangled the woman in his car on June 13 night and then drove about
    Ulhasnagar, Kalyan, Bhiwandi, Nashik, and Nevali village for 13-14 hours
    seeking for a location to bury her.

    The event occurred in Ulhasnagar 5's Kailash Colony. The woman, Asha
    More, was supposedly in a relationship with the constable. She had been married
    twice before.

    Khajekar, who joined the Thane Police
    Commissionerate in 2008 as a security guard, is currently assigned to the Thane
    Police Commissionerate. He lives in Ulhasnagar's Subhash Tekadi neighbourhood
    with his wife and two children. Kalpesh Khairnar, his brother-in-law, lives in
    Ulhasnagar as well.

    The
    tragedy was discovered on Tuesday after an informer alerted the police to a car
    with a woman's body travelling around the lonely Nevali area near Kalyan.
    Police raced to the scene, discovered a dead body in the automobile, and
    brought her to Ulhasnagar's Central Hospital before seizing the vehicle.

     
    "The constable was in an extramarital affair with the woman
    for many years," said Ranjit Dhere, senior police inspector of Hill Line
    police station. During the initial investigation, the accused claimed that she
    was constantly demanding money and that he leave his family and remain with
    her. As a result, the constable became enraged and vowed to murder her. He
    summoned her for a stroll and strangled her to death in the moving
    vehicle."

    Panicked, he sought out a deserted location to bury the body. He
    didn't locate any until the evening of June 14th. “He sought assistance from
    his brother-in-law in order to dispose of the body. He called another person
    and gave him the job. The said person informed us about the incident,” he
    added.

     
    Both the accused were
    produced in court and remanded to police custody till June 18.
