Based on this information, Naresh was arrested. During interrogation, Naresh confessed that he was having an affair with Ganga. Recently, she had been pressuring him to leave his first wife and marry her. Disturbed by this, he hatched a plan to kill her.

As part of his plan, Naresh called Ganga on September 10 and asked her to meet him at a secluded place, promising to leave his house in the evening. However, he took her to the forest near the village, where two of his accomplices were already present. The three of them strangled Ganga and stabbed her to death.
