A chilling murder case has emerged from Auraiya, Uttar Pradesh, where a young man was killed in a suspected love triangle. The family of the alleged mastermind has made a public call for his execution, further complicating the moral landscape.

Just 15 days after his wedding, 25-year-old Dilip Yadav was reportedly murdered in a plot orchestrated by his wife Pragati Yadav and her lover Anurag, known also as Manoj. They allegedly hired a hitman, Ramji Chaudhary, to execute the killing. All have been arrested, according to local law enforcement.

Anurag's family has taken the unusual step of demanding severe punishment for him, with his brother Aalok stating, "He should be given capital punishment." The family claims they were unaware of Anurag's illicit relationship with Pragati. Police reports indicate Dilip was found injured on March 19 and succumbed two days later at a hospital.
