How 800 CCTV cameras and facial recognition tracked a Delhi vegetable vendor who slit the throats of wife and 3 kids over debt

At 4 am on Wednesday, February 25, a vegetable vendor at the Azadpur Mandi in Delhi slit the throats of his wife and three minor daughters at their rented room in Samaypur Badli, and he mulled whether he should end his life as well. But he decided to escape from Delhi, and fled to Ajmer in Rajasthan. The quadruple-murder accused, Munchun Kewat, 42, however, could manage to escape the police for only three days.
