A case is currently being investigated at the Jayanagar Police Station. Reportedly, Nitesh is accusing his wife Ranjitha of leaving their house under suspicious circumstances and accusing his friend Naveen was responsible for her disappearance. According to Nitesh, the couple had married with the permission of their families after dating. 

Friendship Becomes Allegation

Nitesh said he has known Naveen through work, and they were friends over time. At marriage, Nitesh and Ranjitha allegedly lived in a house rented by Naveen. It is during this, he says, that his wife and Naveen drew closer. And he claimed that Ranjitha had managed to preserve Naveen’s contact under another name and was in regular correspondence with him without his knowledge. When he found out this, Nitesh said he confronted his wife several times at once, and told her to keep a distance. 

Suspicion Deepens After Move

In an effort to get the matter rectified, the couple later moved to a different rented house. But Nitesh says the communication between Ranjitha and Naveen persists even after the move. He said he had warned his wife to keep a distance from Naveen, but that she stayed in touch with Naveen, who claimed to be “like a brother.”

According to Nitesh, Ranjitha had left home three days before filing her complaint after packing her clothes. She had taken a half-day leave from work, claiming a stomachache and did not come home. Nitesh suspects her of leaving with Naveen. 

Police Investigation Underway

Police have made an investigation at the time of the complaint. Currently, authorities are crisscrossing call detail records (CDR) and mobile tower locations and trying to find Ranjitha and whether or not she exited voluntarily or was coerced to or taken away from. Police officials said all angles will be explored, and actions will depend on the results of the ongoing investigation.

Complaining and Suffering Appeal of the Emotion

Nitesh said that he is suffering a huge amount from this incident and even believes that both his wife and his friend have betrayed him. He called for help in finding his wife and has called on law enforcement to be in touch. Meanwhile, officials have warned not to be overconfident and pointed out that the case is considered a missing person case until they get everything clear. And they cautioned against arriving at conclusions before the investigation has finished. You need to be very careful that you don't make a snap judgment.

The Sensitive Case

Relationships cases are typically complicated and feature a multitude of emotional problems involving two or more parties that have a lot to prove. A fact-checking process is supposed to be followed by authorities; facts should be fact-checked for inferences.
