The death brought to an end 19 years of a marriage that had followed four years of courtship. The S-I Vipin Bala Sharma wasn't getting along with her husband, Anil Sharma (44), for years. The latest cause of friction was her insistence that he should spend on his own family rather than sustain his extended family at Samaipur Badli, according to joint commissioner (southern range) Amulya Patnaik.
After one such flaming row on Friday night, her husband – who runs a dhaba at Sunlight Colony – and her 16-year-old son, a student of class X, allegedly killed her at their residence in Kilokri area near Maharani Bagh. The remorseless duo then went to the Sunlight Colony police station around 5 am and surrendered. Vipin Bala was rushed to AIIMS Trauma Centre but it was too late. The body has been sent for postmortem.
Sharma and Vipin Bala had a love marriage in 1992, four years after Vipin joined Delhi Police as an assistant sub-inspector . For two years she had prepared herself for the job at her parental residence at Palam as she simply "loved the uniform" "Sharma was running the eatery for the past seven years. The couple were not on good terms for the past three years and fought over money and domestic issues ," said additional commissioner (southeast) Virender Chahal. The CAW mediation cell had once apparently " amicably settled' ' the matter but grouses remained.
Sharma told police his wife was always asking for the money earned from the eatery even as the children alleged that she beat them up regularly . Matters took a turn for the worse when the father and two children shifted to the third floor of their house and barred Vipin from even cooking for them. Vipin settled on the second floor.
On Friday night, the police said, both fought outside the dhaba after Vipin demanded money. "She is alleged to have damaged some utensils," said Chahal. The matter reached the police station. Vipin complained that her husband was not taking care of her and used to spend all his money on his father and sister. Things were settled and they were sent home," said an officer.
When they reached their house, which they had bought two years ago, the younger son started scolding his mother. "He accused her of bringing shame to the family by taking the matter to the police. The mother hit back ferociously and dragged the 12-year-old ," said the officer.
Police said the feud continued through the night and early in the morning Sharma and his elder son strangled her with an electric chord of the iron.
When asked how the incident had happened, the younger son is said to have shot back: "She died. So what?" Patnaik said both sons need counselling. " We are doing whatever we can to help the ASI's family. We all regret the unfortunate incident," he said.
