Delhi techie dies after assault by in-laws following dispute with wife

In outer Delhi's Nihal Vihar, a 31-year-old software engineer named Vinay Gupta was allegedly beaten to death by his wife's family following a marital dispute on Friday. The engineer, who lived in Laxmi Park, had been married to a 31-year-old woman from Budh Vihar about three-and-a-half years ago, with twins, a boy and girl, now four months old.

The couple's dispute began on Friday morning, prompting the woman to call her family to their residence in Nihal Vihar, where they allegedly assaulted Gupta severely. Gupta suffered serious injuries and later succumbed to them. Four people involved in the attack have been detained and questioned by police. Gupta worked as a software engineer for Adobe in Noida, while his wife is a homemaker.

Police are investigating the circumstances leading to the assault and interrogating the detained individuals to determine their roles in the incident.
