Silence like a crematorium: When the murderer’s ‘tea’ revealed the secrets
There was chaos in the entire area after the bodies of former Ajmer Sarpanch Ram Singh Chaudhary, his second wife Surgyan, mother Pushi Devi and niece Mahima were found in a burnt car. There was screaming in the house and relatives were mourning. But amidst this horrifying scene, the investigators’ eyes were fixed on a 17-year-old boy. That boy was none other than Ram Singh’s own son. While everyone’s eyes were moist, that teenager was sitting strangely quiet.

The mystery of the dead bodies: four lives confined to the back seat
According to the initial theory, Ram Singh was taking his ailing mother to the hospital and on the way, the car caught fire due to a short circuit. But when the forensic team and police closely examined the wreckage of the vehicle, two clues were found that ruined the drama of this ‘accident’:
- Empty driving seat: There was no body on the front seats of the car. The question arose that if the car suddenly crashed while it was moving, then why was the driver’s seat vacant?
- Secret of the back seat: All four bodies were kept crammed together in the back of the car.
- Bitter truth of post mortem: The biggest revelation came when deep knife wounds were found on the body of Ram Singh’s second wife Surgyan even before it was burnt in the fire.

Crime web series craze and 5 month ‘master plan’
According to Ajmer Superintendent of Police Harsh Vardhan, the accused teenager was writing the script of this massacre for the last 5 months. He used to play violent online games on mobile day and night and watch crime based web series and shows for hours. He had done proper research on how police work, how fingerprints are erased and how murder is made to look like an accident.
The reason for this hatred was family rift. Ever since Ram Singh got married for the second time, there was tension in the house. The children felt that their father misbehaved with their biological mother. In addition, niece Mahima kept complete accounts of the household’s bank accounts and property, causing the first wife’s children to fear that they would be disinherited.
The silence of 4 o’clock at night and the orgy of death
On the night of the incident, Ram Singh and Surgyan had slept after drinking beer. The minor accused stayed awake the whole night playing games and at exactly 4 in the morning he entered his father’s room with a sharp knife in his hand. He attacked his sleeping father near his ear, which proved fatal.
But then his plans go wrong; Surgyan woke up and made noise. Hearing the sound, mother Pushi Devi and niece Mahima also ran towards the room. At this juncture, the suspense deepened, because hearing the noise, the accused’s real mother (Ram Singh’s first wife) and his sister also reached there. Instead of handling the situation, he supported his son and killed the remaining three women. After this, to destroy the evidence, all the dead bodies were put in the car and set on fire. At present, the police have solved the mystery of this staged murder and have taken the accused into custody.
