Months-long planning led to daylight murder in Rajajinagar industrial area

Ex-IT Professional Kills Wife in Bengaluru

Bengaluru police have revealed that a former IT professional spent several months meticulously planning the murder of his wife before shooting her multiple times in a public industrial area on Tuesday.
The accused, identified as 45-year-old Balamurugan, allegedly shot his wife, Bhuvaneshwari (39), five times in broad daylight at Rajajinagar Industrial Area, killing her on the spot. After the attack, he walked into the Magadi Road police station and surrendered.
Investigators said three bullets struck the victim&rsquo;s head, while one hit her hand and another her back. During interrogation, police noted that the accused showed no remorse.
Police investigations indicate that Balamurugan had quit his job in Whitefield several months ago and had grown increasingly suspicious of his wife. He reportedly spent nearly four months preparing for the crime, researching murder methods online and watching videos related to shooting accuracy.
The weapon used was a country-made pistol, which police say was illegally purchased from Bihar for ₹80,000. Investigators revealed that the accused travelled to Bihar in July last year, learned how to operate the firearm, and later returned to Bengaluru. The pistol, along with two magazines, has been seized.
The couple, married in 2011, had been living separately for over one and a half years due to marital disputes. Police believe the murder was triggered after Bhuvaneshwari recently served a legal notice seeking divorce.
According to investigators, the victim had been living separately with the children and managing the household on her own after the accused quit his job. Family members alleged that the accused frequently fought with her and had earlier attempted to stab her.
The couple&rsquo;s two children, aged 13 and 4, have been left without their mother. The family has demanded strict punishment for the accused.
Balamurugan was produced before a court on Wednesday and remanded to 14 days of police custody. Police are continuing their investigation into the planning of the murder, the illegal procurement of the firearm, and the accused&rsquo;s movements across states.
