Here, Vijay and Rakhi, living with their family in a rented house in Devla village, started working in the same cooler factory. At around 4 am on Monday morning, Rakhi informed the police that her husband had died of a heart attack. During investigation, the police became suspicious due to the circumstances of the incident site and the marks found on the dead body.
