Patna: Police managed to crack the gruesome murder of a coaching institute student in Kaimur district in Bihar on January 11, by arresting her boyfriend on Thursday.
Lalit Mohan Sharma, SP, Kaimur said that the accused Shamim Quraishi, who was the victim’s boyfriend, killed her on the suspicion that she was cheating on him.
