Kin of a Jalandhar area Indo-Canadian woman who recently died during visit to Punjab have levelled allegations against her non-resident-Indian (NRI) husband and in-laws for conspiring to kill her to pocket hefty insurance claim money.

Harmel Singh, a resident of Cheema Kalan village near Phillaur, told media persons that their daughter Amandeep Kaur ( now deceased) had married Sukhdev Singh (a resident of Canada) of Raiwal village near Shahkot in 2010.
The family alleged that last month, Amandeep along with her husband Sukhdev, father-in-law Charan Singh, mother-in-law Surinder Kaur and sister-in-law Jasvir Kaur had come to India to attend a marriage and was staying at her in-laws house.

After her death, they had come to know that before flying to India, the victim’s husband had taken an insurance policy of Amandeep in Canada and to encash the policy, worth several crores, the girl’s father alleged that her husband, in connivance with her parents, conspired to kill her.
