<p>Rahul Verma, a first-year MBA student at Indian Institute of Management, Lucknow had planned the murder of his Mumbai- based fashion designer-friend Adesh Bajpai meticulously.

Rahul, who was then a student at IIT-Kanpur, tried his best to destroy evidence. He had allegedly poured acid on the body so that it could not be identified.<br /><br />Adesh’s body was recovered from the IIT Kanpur campus 13 days after the murder, and identified after a DNA examination.<br /><br />The initial investigation by the Uttar Pradesh police did not make much headway, allegedly owing to their indifferent attitude. It was alleged that a close relative of Rahul was a senior police official in the state and hence, the police did not take much interest in the matter.
