Overview
- After his wife and son vanished in July 2024, Sandeep Kumar alleged relatives killed them and a murder case was filed on November 4, 2024.
- A one-time password sent to Sandeep for an attempted Aadhaar update alerted police to recent changes linked to her identity.
- Investigators used technical surveillance to trace the update to Sikar, where they found Priyanka Prajapati alive and living with another man.
- Police brought her to Basti with her two sons, aged about five years and three months, and recorded her statement that she left of her own will.
- Officials said the Aadhaar change was processed in person without needing an OTP, as police reassess the case while Sandeep seeks custody and her family distances itself.
