Man sells phone without deleting ex-girlfriend's photos; things turn horrifying with murder, suicide

Meerut: Everything started on Saturday when a 35-year-old woman jumped off a bridge with her 5-year-old son in Muzaffarnagar's Gangnahar canal, reports TOI. While the woman died, the son was rescued.

During the investigation, police learnt that photos of the woman with her former boyfriend had gone viral on social media. The "inappropriate" photos were reportedly leaked after the woman's ex-boyfriend sold his phone without deleting the pictures.

However, in a twist, police found that the man who bought the phone was already killed on May 23. Police said that the suspects for the murder were identified based on CCTV footage and they were trying to nab them.

However, before Meerut police could nab them, Saharanpur police arrested the accused in an encounter on Saturday.Kankerkhera SHO Mishra told Times of India that the woman could have also taken the extreme step due to fear that her name would come up in murder probe.
