A woman from Karimnagar district has been arrested for allegedly plotting her husband’s murder after learning a method online. The woman, identified as Ramadevi, is accused of conspiring with her lover, Karre Rajayya, and his friend, Keesari Srinivas, to kill her husband, Ailaveni Sampath, by injecting insecticide into his ear.

Sampath, 45, was a library sweeper who reportedly had a drinking problem and was abusive towards his wife. Ramadevi, who sold snacks for a living and took care of their two children, had been in a relationship with Rajayya, a 50-year-old driver. The two had met while Ramadevi was running her roadside business.

According to the police, Ramadevi came across a YouTube video that described how pouring pesticide into someone’s ear could cause death. She shared this information with Rajayya, and the pair allegedly decided to use the method to kill Sampath. They later brought Srinivas into the plan.

On July 29, Rajayya and Srinivas took Sampath to a flyover on the outskirts of Karimnagar under the pretense of a drinking session. Once Sampath was intoxicated and unconscious, Rajayya poured pesticide into his ear. Sampath died on the spot, and the two men fled.

The following day, Ramadevi filed a missing person report. On August 1, Sampath’s body was found near the Bommakal flyover. Ramadevi and Rajayya informed the police but requested that no post-mortem be conducted, which raised suspicion.

Police began an investigation based on discrepancies in the accounts and a complaint by the victim’s son. They examined call records, mobile phone locations, and CCTV footage. The evidence pointed to the involvement of Ramadevi, Rajayya, and Srinivas.

All three were taken into custody and reportedly confessed during interrogation. The police confirmed that they used the method described in the YouTube video to commit the murder.

Karimnagar Police Commissioner Gaush Alam said the accused have been remanded to judicial custody and charged with murder and criminal conspiracy.
