How stalker cop killed Monika in drain, hid murder for 2 years

After Monika Yadav, 28, a former Delhi Police constable, refused to marry Surender Singh Rana, 42, a Delhi Police head constable, on September 8, 2021, he took her to a deserted stretch in northwest Delhi's Mukhmelpur, slapped her multiple times, and then threw her in a drain from a height of 25-30 metres - but she survived. Rana then walked down to the drain, strangled her, pushed her body underwater, and covered it with stones, according to a charge sheet filed in the murder that had stunned Delhi when details of the crime and elaborate cover-up plot emerged last year.

The new revelations about the brutality of the murder were made in a disclosure statement, which is a part of the 30-page charge sheet submitted to a Delhi court on December 26 last year. The charge sheet and disclosure statement were seen by HT on Thursday.

According to police, Rana kept the murder under wraps for two years by tricking her family into believing that she had eloped and married a person named Arvind.

Yadav's mother Shakuntala and sister Purnima, however, were suspicious, and submitted a complaint to the Mukherjee Nagar police station on October 20, 2021, in which they said that they had visited her paying guest accommodation on October 9-a month after they lost contact with her -but couldn't find her.

Yadav joined the Delhi Police in 2014, and was posted in the police control room (PCR) unit, where she met Rana. The suspect is married and has a son.
