A former model, who was one of the accused in her boyfriend, gangster Sandeep Gadoli’s murder in an alleged fake police encounter in Mumbai, was shot dead at a Gurugram hotel. The incident comes months after she was granted bail.
The ex-model, identified as Divya Pahuja, was allegedly taken to the hotel on Tuesday night by five people and was shot at her head.
Gurugram Police arrested three of the accused, while they were taking her body from the hotel in a car to dump it, police said.
DCP West, Bhupender Singh Sangwan said, ”We have arrested three accused involved in the murder of Pahuja. Further probe is underway.”
Police are investigating the case and questioning the arrested accused.
Who Was Divya Pahuja?
In June, last year, the Bombay High Court had granted bail to Pahuja, seven years after she was arrested in connection with the murder of gangster Sandeep Gadoli in a Mumbai hotel on February 7, 2016.
Pahuja, her mother and five policemen who were allegedly involved in killing of the gangster was arrested by the Mumbai police.
According to the Mumbai Police, Gadoli was lured into a trap with the help of his “girlfriend” Pahuja and was killed in a fake encounter.
Virendra Kumar alias Binder Gujjar ran a rival gang and allegedly conspired with Haryana Police officials to eliminate Gadoli, Mumbai Police had said.
As per the Mumbai police, Gujjar was in prison at the time of the encounter, but had hatched the conspiracy with the help of his brother Manoj and roped in Pahuja as honey trap.
