MEERUT : A man accused of murdering his first wife, father and mother to claim insurance worth Rs 50 crore has been arrested in Hapur, Uttar Pradesh , after his fourth wife alerted police about a series of suspicious deaths in the family.
Vishal Singhal , 37, had already received Rs 1.5 crore in claims and was attempting to file more when police detained him along with his alleged accomplice. Singhal, a resident of Gangangar in Meerut, had convinced his fourth wife, Shreya, to sign multiple high-value life insurance policies.
Her suspicions grew as she noticed patterns similar to those in reports she had read about an ongoing insurance scam being probed in Sambhal. When her concerns were dismissed by local police in Meerut, she reached out to the Sambhal police , who were already investigating fraud cases involving staged deaths across 11 states.
