What role did alcohol play in this couple's relationship?

According to reports, Surendra Kumar Sharma's alcohol addiction led to frequent fights and domestic violence, which became one of Ruby's alleged motives for committing the crime. His brother told that Surendra was unemployed and an alcohol addict. His drinking habit led to frequent fights and alleged domestic violence at home. According to Surendra's brother Anil Sharma, Ruby called him on May 18 and said that the police were raiding their house. He asked them to take Surendra's mother and the couple's two daughters. Anil brought them to his home and the next day Ruby also came with him. He reportedly told the family that Surendra had left home and would return in four-five days.

How did Ruby manage to hide the crime initially?

When Surendra did not return, Anil and Ruby together lodged a missing complaint at the local police post on 26 May. During the investigation, the police also looked at CCTV footage of Ruby, but did not find any clue about Surendra. This appearance kept him out of suspicion for several weeks, until he told his brother-in-law the truth. According to the family, Ruby continued to live at Anil's house with her mother-in-law and children and was also seen upset over Surendra's disappearance. A few days later, Anil sends Ruby, his mother and the children back to Surendra's house.

What did the police find out during the investigation?

After Ruby's confession, police find skeletal remains under the bathroom floor. They are also waiting for the forensic report to determine the exact cause of death, which is very important for the ongoing investigation. According to the police, the deceased has been identified as 44-year-old Surendra Kumar Sharma, a resident of Bharatpur, Rajasthan, who was living with his wife Ruby, mother Kamala and two daughters in Renuka Dham Colony in Sikandra area of ​​Agra.

Alcohol addiction and that bloody night of '26 May'

The accused woman Ruby, who was caught by the police, was married to Surendra Sharma. But behind this relationship that appeared normal to the outside world, there was a long and painful history of domestic violence. During police interrogation, Ruby told that Surendra was unemployed and was so addicted to alcohol that he used to return home drunk every day. The entire family was living on the pension given to Surendra's old mother, but despite this, Surendra continuously beat Ruby mercilessly. After enduring years of physical and mental torture, Ruby's inner bubble had turned into lava. On the night of 26th May, when Surendra once again attacked Ruby violently in an intoxicated state, Ruby's patience broke. That very night, he took a terrible decision, which no one had even imagined, to silence his beloved forever.

How did the suspicion increase?

Suspicion increased when Anil checked his mother's bank account, in which her pension was received. She alleged that Ruby was managing the account and gave only a small part of the money to her mother. On Friday, Ruby called Anil home. When she asked again about Surendra, Ruby reportedly told him that his body was buried under the bathroom floor. After receiving this information, the police reached the house and excavated the bathroom. The skeleton was found under the concrete floor and sent for forensic examination.

45 days of suspense: The dead body was buried beneath the house where the investigation took place!

After committing the murder, the biggest challenge facing Ruby was to dispose of the evidence. She dug up the bathroom floor of the house in a very vicious manner, put her husband's body in it and closed the pit on top and covered it with a strong layer of concrete and plaster. Immediately after this, Surendra's brother Anil Sharma lodged a complaint about his disappearance at Sikandra Police Station. The police team continued to investigate for the next 45 days. Police officers kept coming in and out of the same house, roaming around the same bathroom in search of clues, but remained completely unaware of the horrifying truth hidden under the floor. Ruby also kept throwing dust in the eyes of the law by behaving very normally during this period.

Midnight confession: When the murderer broke his silence in front of his mother-in-law

On Thursday too, as usual, a police team came to the family's house for investigation and returned after asking some questions. But after the police left, Ruby's patience and courage gave way. Perhaps the mental pressure of 45 days and the feeling of guilt had overpowered him. That very night, breaking the silence of the house, Ruby knelt down in front of her mother-in-law. She tearfully confessed that Surendra had not disappeared anywhere, but had been murdered. When she tremblingly pointed towards the bathroom floor and told that Surendra's body was buried there, the ground slipped beneath the feet of the old mother. Without wasting a moment, brother Anil immediately informed the police about this midnight confession, after which heavy police force surrounded the house from all sides.

While digging the floor, a skeleton was found: Now the search is on for the 'third' helper!

The police took immediate action and detained Ruby and called laborers on her notice and started demolishing the bathroom floor. As soon as the layers of concrete were removed, the decomposed skeleton of Surendra Sharma was recovered in front of the police. The police have sealed the entire house and sent the skeleton for forensic and post-mortem examination to confirm the exact cause and time of death. Now the biggest suspense in this case is whether a housewife single-handedly committed such a big murder and did the work of digging and plastering a deep grave? Agra Police is now working on the theory whether any other outsider or any of his helpers was involved along with Ruby in this dreadful incident and the game of destroying evidence. Sikandra Police is busy investigating every aspect of this case.

What did the victim say in front of the police about her husband's murder?

During interrogation, Ruby did not admit to killing her husband. According to the police, he claimed that Surendra had committed suicide by hanging himself. She said she panicked after his death and buried the body inside the bathroom to avoid legal trouble. Deputy Commissioner of Police Syed Ali Abbas said that the police are investigating all aspects of the case. "A case has come to light in which a woman allegedly buried the body of her husband under the bathroom floor after his death. She is being interrogated and further facts are being confirmed," he said. Police are waiting for the post-mortem and forensic reports to find out the exact cause of death. Further investigation is ongoing.
