Incident Details: A conspiracy that shook the entire area was exposed on the evening of July 20, 2025 in Malkia Bazaha Kharam village under Karari police station area of Kaushambi district of Uttar Pradesh. A woman named Malti Devi mixed sulfas (a poisonous chemical) in flour to eliminate eight of her in-laws. Her plan was to kill the entire family in one fell swoop by feeding them poisoned rotis. But her sister-in-law, Manju Devi, detected the strange smell coming from the flour, and thus a major tragedy was averted. The police arrested Malti Devi, her father Kaluprasad, and brother Bajrangi. A case has been registered against the three under conspiracy to murder and other serious sections. A sample of the poisoned flour has been sent to the forensic laboratory, and the police are investigating the matter in depth. Roots of the conspiracy: Quarrels with in-laws: During interrogation, Malti Devi revealed that she was fed up with the daily fights with her in-laws, Manju Devi. Domestic disputes and alleged mental anguish had forced her to the point where she decided to end the entire in-laws. She hatched this terrible plan with her father Kaluprasad and brother Bajrangi. An ex-post said: “This conspiracy of Malti Devi is going to shake the foundations of relationships. It is unbelievable that a daughter-in-law would take such a serious step against her own in-laws.” Background: Domestic disputes and changing behavior: Malti Devi was married to Brijesh Kumar Mori in 2014, who works as a helper in Saudi Arabia. After marriage, they had two children, and initially everything was going well. But when Brijesh went back to Saudi Arabia, Malti was left alone with her children at her in-laws’ house. At the same time, disputes started with her brother-in-law. Family members said that Malti often went to the fields wearing a suit and salwar and talked to someone on her mobile for hours. When Brijesh returned from Saudi Arabia, he also noticed his wife’s changing behavior and tried to explain it to her, but the result was only in the form of arguments. Sulfas' stench opened the door: On the evening of July 20, as the family was preparing to make rotis, Manju Devi noticed a strange odor coming from the flour. The color also looked dark. Brajesh also smelled something like sulfas. When Malti was questioned severely, she confessed that she had mixed sulfas in the flour to make it poisonous. She also said that she had hatched this plan with her father and brother to kill the entire family. Police action: Brajesh immediately informed the police, and the Karari police station took Malti Devi into custody. During interrogation, Malti revealed the involvement of her father and brother. The police also arrested Kaluprasad and Bajrangi. A sample of the poisoned flour has been sent for forensic examination to confirm the presence of sulfas. The police have registered a case against the accused under attempt to murder (IPC Section 307) and other relevant sections. Silence in the village and uproar on social media: The incident has created silence in the village of Malikya Bazha Kharam.
