Belagavi Triple Murder
प्रणिता अपने पति महेंद्र और दो बच्चों के साथ एक अच्छे घर में रहती थी। महेंद्र एक सफल व्यापारी था, जो अपने परिवार को सुख-सुविधाएँ देने के लिए दिन-रात मेहनत करता था। लेकिन इस आरामदायक जिंदगी में एक चीज़ की कमी थी — पति-पत्नी के बीच का भावनात्मक रिश्ता।
महेंद्र ज्यादातर समय बिज़नेस ट्रिप, मीटिंग्स और फोन कॉल्स में व्यस्त रहता था। धीरे-धीरे प्रणिता खुद को अकेला महसूस करने लगी। उसे अपने पति का समय, प्यार और ध्यान चाहिए था, लेकिन महेंद्र अपनी जिम्मेदारियों में इतना उलझ चुका था कि वह उसकी भावनाओं को समझ ही नहीं पाया।
उनके पड़ोस में निलेश नाम का एक युवक रहता था, जो चार्टर्ड स्टडीज़ की तैयारी कर रहा था। उसके माता-पिता को उससे बहुत उम्मीदें थीं। निलेश पढ़ाई में अच्छा था और अपने भविष्य को लेकर गंभीर भी।
प्रणिता अक्सर उसे छत से देखा करती थी। शुरुआत में यह सिर्फ सामान्य बातचीत तक सीमित था, लेकिन धीरे-धीरे दोनों के बीच नज़दीकियाँ बढ़ने लगीं। अकेलापन और आकर्षण ने उन्हें एक-दूसरे के करीब ला दिया।
एक दिन प्रणिता ने दोनों घरों की छतों के बीच एक सीढ़ी लगा दी। यही सीढ़ी उनके गुप्त रिश्ते की शुरुआत बन गई।
अब दोनों चोरी-छिपे मिलने लगे। समय के साथ उनका रिश्ता शारीरिक संबंधों तक पहुँच गया। निलेश भावनात्मक रूप से प्रणिता से जुड़ता चला गया। उसका ध्यान पढ़ाई से हटने लगा और उसका पूरा फोकस इस रिश्ते पर आ गया।
करीब एक साल बाद जब परीक्षा के नतीजे आए, तो निलेश असफल हो गया। तभी उसे एहसास हुआ कि इस रिश्ते ने उसके करियर और भविष्य को कितना नुकसान पहुँचाया है।
निलेश ने फैसला किया कि वह इस रिश्ते को खत्म करके अपनी जिंदगी पर ध्यान देगा। लेकिन प्रणिता उसे छोड़ना नहीं चाहती थी। वह उस पर रिश्ता जारी रखने का दबाव डालने लगी।
धीरे-धीरे दोनों के बीच तनाव, झगड़े और मानसिक दबाव बढ़ने लगे। जो रिश्ता अकेलेपन से शुरू हुआ था, वही अब कई जिंदगियों के टूटने की वजह बन चुका था।
Pranita (played by Trishna Mukherjee) lived in a comfortable house with her husband Mahendra (real name Praveen Subramanya Bhat, played by Saurabh Agarwal) and their two children. Mahendra was a successful businessman who worked day and night to provide a good life for his family. But in the middle of all the comfort and money, something important was missing.
Mahendra was always busy. Most of his time went into business trips, meetings, and endless phone calls. Slowly, the distance between husband and wife started growing. Pranita felt lonely. She wanted attention, care, and someone who would listen to her.
Next door lived Nilesh (real name Praveen Subramanya Bhat, played by Akash Pratap Singh), a young student preparing for Chartered Studies. His parents dreamed of seeing him become successful one day. Nilesh was hardworking and focused on his future.
Pranita often saw him from the terrace. At first, it was just casual observation, but gradually their conversations started increasing. Curiosity soon turned into attraction.
One day, Pranita placed a ladder between their terraces. That ladder became the beginning of a secret relationship.
Pranita and Nilesh started meeting regularly without anyone knowing. Their bond became physical, and Nilesh slowly got emotionally attached to her. He stopped paying attention to his studies and spent more time thinking about Pranita.
Months passed, and the relationship began affecting his future badly. When exam results came, Nilesh failed. For the first time, he realized how much damage the affair had caused in his life.
He decided to end the relationship and focus on rebuilding his career. But Pranita was unwilling to let him go. She became emotionally dependent on him and started pressuring him to continue meeting her.
The situation soon turned stressful and complicated. Arguments, emotional manipulation, and frustration started taking over their lives. What had begun as loneliness and attraction eventually destroyed peace, trust, and several lives together.

Belagavi Triple Murder: The Real Story Behind “Zarurat”
Crime Patrol Satark Episode 694 “Zarurat” was inspired by a shocking real-life triple murder case reported from Kuvempu Nagar, Belagavi, Karnataka.
The accused, 23-year-old Praveen Subramanya Bhat, was a Chartered Accountancy student studying at Gogte College of Commerce. He lived in Sahyadri Nagar and reportedly had an illicit relationship with a married woman named Reena Rakesh Malgatti.
According to the police investigation, Reena’s husband Rakesh was often away from home for business work. During this period, Praveen and Reena became close and continued the relationship secretly for more than a year.
However, with time, Praveen allegedly wanted to end the affair and focus on his future. Police said that he claimed Reena continued contacting him despite his attempts to distance himself from her.
On Saturday night, Praveen allegedly entered Reena’s house using a rope around 11:30 PM. After returning home once, he reportedly went back again at around 3 AM on Sunday and murdered Reena along with her two children — 12-year-old Aditya and 5-year-old Sahitya.
Police believe the children were killed because the accused considered them witnesses.
The brutal triple murder shocked the entire Belagavi city. Investigation teams were immediately formed under the supervision of Police Commissioner S. Ravi. Forensic evidence and footprints collected from the crime scene helped police identify and arrest Praveen within 12 hours of the crime.
What made the case even more disturbing was that after committing the murders, Praveen reportedly mixed with neighbours and continued watching the police investigation as if nothing had happened.
The case highlighted how an emotionally complicated extramarital affair eventually turned into a horrifying crime that destroyed an entire family.
