Bareilly serial killer Kuldeep arrested: The SSP office of Bareilly district in UP was made a ‘war room’. At least 100 policemen divided into first 14 and then 22 teams were scanning the footage of more than 1500 CCTV cameras. During this time, 600 new CCTV cameras were installed in the district. The dump data of 1.5 lakh mobile numbers within a radius of 25 km was examined. This hard work and vigorous investigation finally paid off. And then after a year, the police caught the cunning ‘serial killer’ who murdered 9 women one after the other. And despite this, he was roaming freely as an anonymous murderer.
horror of serial killer
We are talking about that serial killer who had made the people of 90 villages of Bareilly district sleepless. That serial killer, because of whom women had stopped going out of the house alone. That serial killer, because of whom people did not go to work in the fields. Because of whom women were forced to carry weapons with them. But finally that cruel person was caught after a year.
Question after question!
Now the question was why this serial killer was killing only women selectively? Why did he target lonely women on deserted roads? Why did he choose only women aged between 50 and 60 years for murder? Why did he commit every murder using the pallu of a sari or a woman’s dupatta? And what was going on in his mind that he killed only women?

A strange aspect of the investigation or a coincidence!
As important as these questions are, their answers have also been found to be equally shocking after the arrest of the serial killer. But before we tell you the entire story of this serial killer, which has remained a mystery for a year, from his first murder to his capture, let us first look at a strange aspect of the ongoing investigation to find this serial killer or rather say a strange coincidence.
The killer’s face matches two of the three sketches
First of all, when the face of that serial killer was revealed and after his arrest, the police brought him in front of the media, it was found that out of the three sketches released by the police just a day before the arrest of this serial killer, two sketches in particular caught everyone’s attention. Actually, the face of the arrested accused matches exactly with those sketches. So much so that it would not be wrong to call it identical. Just like the suspected killer in the sketches, the arrested accused has a broad forehead, less or short hair, round face, large eyes and flat nose, while just like the killer seen in both the sketches, the arrested accused is also wearing a checked shirt.
This is how police artists make sketches
Usually, such similarity between the accused and the sketch of a suspect is not seen, because different eyewitnesses remember the faces of the suspects and tell them to the sketch artist and the artist puts them on paper. In which some or the other flaw remains. But here it seems that the onlookers gave absolutely accurate information to the artist and just a day after the sketch was released, the police arrested the suspected murderer.
Why did the police not do this earlier?
Now the question arises that if the police got success the very next day of releasing the sketch, then why did the police not do this earlier? Why for almost a year the Bareilly police failed to connect similar incidents of murder of women with each other? Why could the police not understand this to be the act of a serial killer? This is an important question, because due to this ignorance of the police, one by one about 9 women were killed by the serial killer in the district and by the time he was caught, it was too late…
Amazing similarity in murders
Now let us understand this whole story in a sequential manner. In three police station areas of Bareilly district, Shahi, Sheeshganj and Fatehganj, women were being murdered intermittently since July last year. And there was an amazing similarity in these murders. That means almost all the murders happened during the afternoon. Whoever the murderer was, he was killing women and especially women in the age group of 50 to 60 years. He used to kill only those women who were alone. For the murder, he used the pallu of the women’s saree or their dupatta and tied a knot on the left side of their neck. Another special thing was that most of the murders happened in or around sugarcane fields. And all these things were pointing towards the fact that a serial killer is behind these murders.
This is how the case of serial killing came to light
The special thing is that this serial killer killed about five to six women one by one from July to November last year, but after this he remained inactive for a long time. That is, after this he did not make anyone his victim for a long time. But on the 2nd of July this year, he suddenly killed another woman in the same Shahi police station area and came under the police radar. Actually the police noticed that this woman was also murdered in the same way as five or six women were murdered last year. In such a situation, the police started looking at it as a serial killing and then started their investigation afresh, which was named ‘Operation Talaash’.
Serial killer Kuldeep is 35 years old
And in this connection, the police also got suspect sketches made and finally, based on the inputs received from informers and suspicious activities, the police arrested a 35-year-old man named Kuldeep, who not only confessed to murdering several women one by one, but during interrogation, he took the police to every place where he had murdered the women.
This was the reason for killing the women
Now the question is, why did this serial killer kill only women? And that too in a very similar way? So the police answered this too. The police says that the accused was addicted to drugs and his personal life was also very disturbed. After his mother’s death, his stepmother came to the house, who allegedly troubled him a lot, due to which he started getting irritated with women. After this, his married life was also not good. His wife left him after getting fed up with his habits. After which his resentment towards women increased even more and then he started targeting women. He would try to make a relationship with lonely women, those who agreed, he would leave them and those who did not, he would kill them. Since he did all this without any weapon, he used to kill women by strangulating them with their clothes.
This is how Kuldeep came on the police radar
According to the police, Kuldeep, who came from a rural area of Bareilly, lived like a nomad and was often out of town. He did not have his own house. He would often visit his two sisters or relatives for food and then leave after eating. People used to see and know him, but could never understand that Kuldeep was the one who was killing women. Therefore, time passed and the crimes kept happening but he was not caught. It was only when the police started making a list of such wanderers, drug addicts and suspicious people that Kuldeep came on the police radar.
These women’s belongings were found with the murderer
After this, when his behaviour, personal life and his actions were revealed, the police’s suspicion deepened on him and he was arrested on the basis of suspicion. But when he was questioned, he not only confessed to the murders, but some women’s clothes, the scissors he had looted, Aadhaar card and money were recovered from him, which made it completely clear that the person who killed the women was none other than Kuldeep.
Hatred for step mother and wife made him a murderer
The rejection he got from women made the serial killer of Bareilly so crazy that he would start thinking of harming women as soon as he saw them. When the police arrested this man named Kuldeep, he admitted that women had troubled him a lot in his personal life. First his step mother and then his wife. Due to which he started hating women. Since his wife had left the house, he was not able to live a married life despite being married.
Serial killer is a victim of bipolar disorder
Wherever he saw a lonely woman, he tried to make a relationship with her. And as soon as the women refused, he would kill them. Police said that apart from being addicted to cannabis, he is also suffering from a disease like bipolar disorder, in which he remembers some things and does not remember some. Police was surprised to know that when the policemen interrogated him in uniform, he remained silent on most of the questions, but whenever the police asked him questions without uniform, he answered all the questions openly. Since he did not have any thing like mobile phone, bank account, bicycle, bike, the police had difficulty in monitoring him and that is why his arrest was also delayed.
