Ludhiana, June 23 -- The murder of 55-year-old Sonam Jain, a resident of Punjabi Bagh Colony of Salem Tabri, has taken a turn as police now suspect personal rivalry or enmity as the primary motive behind the crime, and not robbery. The suspicion arose after investigators noted that the woman's gold jewellery and other valuables were untouched, while her husband claimed that a small amount of cash was missing.

According to the police, the killer was caught on CCTV entering and exiting the house, but managed to avoid clear identification. Crucially, the deceased's husband, Satinder Kumar Jain, who works in a factory, has refused to recognise the man, although police suspect that the intruder might be an acquaintance of the family.
