Sons plotted ex-IAF officer's murder in Ghaziabad over property greed, police allege.
The Uttar Pradesh Police have made significant progress in the murder case of Yogesh Kumar, a retired Indian Air Force officer, who was shot dead on December 26 in Ghaziabad’s Loni area. Investigators allege that the killing was orchestrated by Kumar’s own sons, Nitesh and Guddu, who reportedly hired contract killers due to a dispute over property after their father urged them to vacate his house. The primary suspect, identified as Arvind, a neighbor, was arrested along with a police constable, Naveen, who is also implicated in the conspiracy. Police recovered a country-made pistol and cartridges from Arvind’s possession, while both the sons and Constable Naveen remain at large. The brazen nature of the crime, occurring in broad daylight, has sent shockwaves through the local community, highlighting the dire implications of familial greed and internal disputes escalating to violence. Authorities continue to investigate the conspiracy, with efforts underway to apprehend all individuals involved in this tragic case.
