A 45-year-old woman was killed after her 25-year-old lover allegedly pushed her in front of a moving train at Gondal station in Rajkot. India Today reports that CCTV footage showed the woman arriving with Prakash Solanki on August 3 at 11.30 pm. As a train approached about two hours later, Solanki pushed her onto the tracks. Police said he confessed after being arrested and recreated the sequence at the spot. The woman, who was married but living separately, had been pressuring Solanki to marry her. His family opposed the relationship because she was already married and older. Police suspect the repeated pressure led to the murder. The victim earned her living as a cook and had four children.
