A woman, identified as Sanhati Paul, stabbed her 32-year-old live-in-partner to death in Kolkata.
Paul is divorced and has a young son. She is a professional makeup artist and was in a live-in relationship with Sarthak Das, a photographer.
Just hours before his death, Das had shared a photo of him with the woman and her son, with the caption “family”.
Das’s social media account had several pictures of him and Paul, and with Paul’s son. His relationship status was also changed to “engaged”.
On Wednesday, the woman allegedly stabbed Das with a sharp knife several times. Paul then informed the cops about the crime.
A police team reached Paul’s apartment in Dumdum area and found Das lying in a pool of blood with several stab marks on his body. He was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was declared brought dead.
Police said that Paul confessed to the crime during interrogation.
