In a major twist in the dhaba arson case where an employee died in the blaze last month, the Soladevanahalli police have arrested the wife, a software engineer, of one of the owners for allegedly orchestrating the fire to get back at her husband. According to the police, the woman, identified as Sheetal, hired a rowdy-sheeter to set fire to U-Turn dhaba in Soladevanahalli.
The incident took place on December 23, 2021. The dhaba manager sustained major burns and succumbed the next day. Three people, including the rowdy-sheeter she hired, Manu Kumar, were arrested a few days later. “She paid the rowdysheer ₹20,000 for the job to get back at her husband who left her six months after they got married,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP North) Vinayak Patil, who is supervising the investigation.
