Meerut, Aug. 9 -- Police in Shamli district have uncovered how a woman conspired with her lover to kill her husband, using code language to relay his location to the killers. Mohd Shahnawaz (28), a furniture craftsman from Jharakhedi village in Haryana's Sonipat district, was stabbed and shot dead on Khurgan Road, Kairana, on Thursday while riding with his wife, Maifreen, to attend a relative's wedding. The attack was carried out by four men on two motorcycles, who first rammed his bike, then forced him to stop by hitting him with a stick, and launched a frenzied knife assault before firing a shot. Shahnawaz died en route to hospital. Police say Maifreen had planned the killing with her lover, Tasavvur - who is also Shahnawaz's cousin - after the victim caught her speaking to him on the phone three days earlier and assaulted her. The couple prepared coded phrases two days before the murder to avoid suspicion: "The destination is coming" meant they were approaching Khurgan Road; "just wait a bit" signalled they were nearly there; and "cross the bridge" told the assailants to follow closely. On the morning of the murder, Maifreen called Tasavvur immediately after leaving home, continuously updating him about Shahnawaz's location until the attack took place. She later reported the incident to the police herself, on her lover's advice, to avoid raising suspicion. Maifreen's repeated fainting spells and refusal to give a statement at the hospital raised the doubts of investigators. When police examined her call records, they discovered she had been in constant contact with Tasavvur for six months, including multiple calls on the day of the killing. Late on Thursday night, police arrested Tasavvur, a resident of village Bhura (currently living in Sarurpur, Baghpat), and Shoaib of Bhura, Kairana. HTC...
