Delhi Quadruple Murder: Suspect Arrested in Rajasthan After Fatal Slayings
Police say a Delhi man killed his wife and three daughters in Samaypur Badli; the suspect was arrested in Kishangarh, Rajasthan, after a days-long manhunt.
Delhi police on Saturday arrested a man in Kishangarh, Rajasthan, for allegedly killing his wife and three daughters at their Samaypur Badli residence in Delhi. The killings occurred on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, and neighbours found the victims in a ground-floor room with their throats slit, alerting the police.
The accused, identified as Munchun Kewat, a vegetable seller at Azadpur Mandi, had been evading arrest since the incident. He was apprehended in Kishangarh, Rajasthan, on Saturday, ending a multi-day manhunt.
Police said he had been facing financial issues, with frequent fights between the couple over money, according to preliminary inquiries. The investigation is continuing to establish motive and sequence of events surrounding the tragedy.
Reports indicate a lender's demand for repayment and the use of a newly purchased knife may have connected to the incident, though authorities are examining all angles. The case has prompted calls for greater safety measures in the capital and heightened scrutiny of debt-related pressures.
Authorities are coordinating with Delhi police to piece together the timeline and provide updates as more details emerge.
