She was produced before the court on Monday which remanded her to one-day police custody.Police said that the victim had illicit relations with Babli's daughter. Even after the marriage of her daughter, the victim used to send letters to her in-laws about his affair with the girl.

Enraged over his conduct, Babli, her son Ravi and a relative hatched a conspiracy to murder Ali. They called him and offered him liquor before strangling him to death.
