Social Media Obsession Turns Deadly: Bhiwani Woman, Lover Kill Husband After Being Caught in the Act

What started as innocent collaborations for social media fame ended in a gruesome murder in Haryana’s Bhiwani district. A 35-year-old man was allegedly strangled to death by his wife and her lover after catching them in an intimate act at their home. The sensational case, involving popular local influencers, has sent shockwaves through the town of Premnagar.

The Fatal Night

According to police, Ravina, a 32-year-old social media influencer with over 34,000 followers on Instagram and a growing YouTube channel, had been growing distant from her husband Praveen due to her obsession with online content creation. Frequent arguments at home centered around her time spent shooting videos and traveling with fellow influencer Suresh, whom she met on Instagram nearly 18 months ago.

On the evening of March 25, Praveen returned home unexpectedly and walked into a nightmare. There, in his own home, he discovered Ravina and Suresh in an intimate situation. Enraged, a heated altercation ensued, but it quickly turned deadly. Ravina allegedly grabbed a dupatta and choked Praveen to death with Suresh’s help.

A Cold, Calculated Cover-up

Shockingly, Ravina went about the day pretending everything was normal. When relatives asked about Praveen’s whereabouts, she feigned ignorance. That night, under the cover of darkness, Suresh arrived on a motorcycle. The two conspirators placed Praveen’s lifeless body between them on the bike and rode to a drain roughly six kilometers away, where they disposed of the body.

The CCTV Breakthrough

Three days later, local residents alerted police after discovering a decomposed body in the drain. The police investigation swiftly led to a key piece of evidence: CCTV footage from the night of March 26. The footage captured three people riding a bike at around 12:30 AM, with only two returning. Detectives identified the riders as Ravina and Suresh, and following intense questioning, the duo confessed to the crime.

A Dark Side to Social Media Fame

Ravina’s social media presence was built on lighthearted, family-centric content — a cruel irony considering the domestic tragedy that unfolded behind the scenes. Police said tensions in the household had been escalating for months, fueled by Praveen’s objections to Ravina’s growing social media involvement and her relationship with Suresh.

“This was a murder born out of betrayal and obsession,” said a senior police officer involved in the case. “Praveen’s suspicions about the affair were well-founded, and it ultimately cost him his life.”

Community in Shock

The murder has left the local community horrified, particularly because of the involvement of individuals who maintained a cheerful, relatable online persona. “It’s hard to believe someone making family comedy videos could be capable of such brutality,” said a neighbor.

The couple leaves behind a six-year-old son, now caught in the tragic aftermath of his father’s murder and his mother’s arrest.

Legal Proceedings Underway

Both Ravina and Suresh have been booked for murder and conspiracy and are currently in judicial custody. Investigations are ongoing, with police collecting additional digital evidence, call records, and forensic details.

This case has reignited conversations about the double lives led by some in the world of social media, where curated online personas can often mask grim realities.
