Amroha, Jan 4 (IANS) A man and his wife were arrested in Uttar Pradesh’s Amroha for killing their nephew over property.

The 20-year-old victim Monu Tyagi went missing on Sunday and his body was found near a canal in Malakpur Bhud Shumali village on Tuesday.

Police said Monu’s aunt Chanchal has confessed to have strangled him with the help of her husband Bablu so that they could be the sole owner of a house.

Lavram owned the house worth around Rs 5 lakhs and Monu was his only grandson.
