A meticulously planned murder in Mumbai was undone by a combination of phone records, a lengthy and ultimately disproven alibi, and a challenging trek undertaken by the accused. Ketan’s alleged murderer claimed to have been elsewhere during the crime, but call data placed him near the scene. Investigators discovered the suspect undertook a nearly 48-minute trek, ostensibly to establish his false alibi, but inconsistencies emerged during questioning. Police scrutiny revealed the alibi was fabricated to conceal his involvement. The detailed analysis of communication logs and physical evidence ultimately led to the unraveling of the murder plot and the suspect’s exposure. The case highlights the increasing role of digital forensics in modern criminal investigations.
