A 45-year-old man from Jabalpur,Madhya Pradesh, was allegedly killed by a woman who pretended to love him, married him in a fake ceremony, and then murdered him to take his land.

The man, Indrakumar Tiwari, was a part-time teacher and farmer from Padwar (Khitola). He owned 18 acres of land and had no one to take care of it. During a spiritual gathering (Satsang), he shared his problem with spiritual speaker Aniruddhacharya Maharaj. In a video that went viral, Indrakumar said he couldn’t find a life partner and had no one to look after his land. The spiritual guru jokingly told him to become a monk and donate the land.

After this video spread online, a woman named Sahiba Bano saw it. Police say she made a fake identity using a fake Aadhaar card and contacted Indrakumar on social media as "Khushi Tiwari." Indrakumar agreed to meet her and travelled to Gorakhpur. There, she arranged a fake marriage ceremony. Just a few hours later, she and two others allegedly killed him and threw his body in a drain.

Police said she planned to use their wedding photos to show herself as his wife and take his land. Aniruddhacharya Maharaj, also called "Pookie Baba" on social media, is a popular spiritual speaker known for his funny and quick replies during his talks. His humorous style has made him very popular online.
