After killing the husband, the duo dumped his body in a plastic tank. They absconded and after being caught, they confessed to the crime during questioning.

The incident that took place in the Kishangarhbas Police Station area came to light on Sunday.

Superintendent of Police Manish Chaudhary said the two were detained from a brick kiln in Alwada village of Alwar district.

“Initial investigations indicate that Laxmi and Jitendra plotted the murder in a bid to conceal their affair. The victim, Hansram, was killed on the night of August 15. The body was later found inside a blue plastic drum on the roof of their rented accommodation,” SP was quoted as saying by PTI.

Laxmi had borrowed the drum from her landlord, saying she needed it to store water.
