In a case rife with deception, police cracked the mystery of Kabir's murder, arresting six suspects who thought they had covered their tracks. The accused avoided using smartphones, frequently changed SIM cards, and steered clear of main roads to evade authorities, but ultimately, their anti-detection measures led to their arrests.

Kabir, a Lucknow resident, was strangled, his body set on fire, and left in Unnao district. The murder was driven by a heated property dispute over a land parcel along the Rae Bareli-Lucknow Highway. Despite efforts to erase digital traces, police pieced together evidence, identified suspects, and conducted swift arrests.

The victim disappeared on November 15, sparking an investigation after a missing person report was filed. Police painstakingly followed leads, contacting neighboring stations, which eventually led to the discovery of Kabir's body. The arrests on December 8 and 12 highlight the tenacity and thoroughness of the investigation team, showcasing their commitment to justice.
