Law student kills woman over public urination dispute

In Lucknow, a 62-year-old woman was killed after she objected to a young man's public urination. The suspect, 22-year-old Vishal Verma, is a law student. He was arrested by police on Sunday. The woman, identified as Jagrana, was reported missing before her body was found in a deserted house. Police used both technical evidence and manpower to identify Verma as the suspect. Several police teams, including one from the DCP South office, worked to locate him. He was arrested near the Purvanchal Expressway. During questioning, Verma claimed the incident happened on March 15, just after the Holi festival. He said he was urinating when Jagrana confronted him and insulted him. Angry about her previous objections, he attacked her, dragging her into the ruins and hitting her multiple times with an iron rod and a brick. Police recovered the weapons used in the murder based on Verma's admissions. His frequent presence near the victim's house was recorded by nearby CCTV cameras, which helped in confirming his involvement in the crime.
