After the murder of a businessman allegedly by his wife and her paramour, another Mumbaikar is learnt to have been killed by a family member—her own son. The Juhu police on Wednesday arrested the 40-year-old man who allegedly killed his 74-year-old mother, packed her body in a four-foot box and dumped it, said sources. It was the suspicion of her second son, who lives in the US, that led to Sachin Kapoor’s arrest. The cops are searching both the forest and the creek in Navi Mumbai for Veena Kapoor’s body, as Sachin is misleading them about the exact location. 

Sachin told the cops that he killed his mother on Tuesday night, said sources. They added that the CCTV cameras at the Kalpataru Solitaire in Juhu, where Veena Govardhandas Kapoor and Sachin lived, captured the events. The footage also helped the cops confirm how he disposed of the body.
