Unbelievable use of artificial intelligence: He made himself look dead to avoid being tried for murder!

NEWS CENTER/ According to local media reports, a man in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh made it look like he was dead by using artificial intelligence in order to be released by the court in the case where he was accused of murder in 2016.

The accused, Rajkumar Rajbhar, allegedly procured a death certificate using an AI-generated image of a body lying on a funeral pyre. Burning the body to ashes is a common practice in India.

HE USED A GOAT CALLED HIS OWN BODY

According to the police, accused Rajbhar, 38, hatched a conspiracy to stage his own death in Ghazipur on May 30, 2025 and used a goat for the purpose. Additionally, according to the police statement, the defendant had previously submitted documents to the court stating that he was not alive to stand trial.

Allegedly, the defendant organized the funeral of a goat in Ghazipur and arranged these images as if they belonged to his own body through artificial intelligence.

HE WALKED FREE FOR A YEAR AND A HALF

While the court validated the documents submitted by Rajbhar, this allowed Rajbhar to move freely outside for a year and a half.

However, Rajbhar, who was reported to have returned to his hometown to meet his wife and children, was detained near Khwajajahanpur district, where he lived, on Sunday, with the support of Kotwali Nagar police, Special Operations Group (SOG) and surveillance team.

HE WAS RELEASED ON BAIL

Rajbhar was out on bail in connection with the murder of Yogesh Singh in 2016. Singh was shot dead near the Munshipura railway line, and upon the complaint of the victim's nephew, Avinash Singh, a murder case was filed against Rajkumar Rajbhar and his friend Sudarshan Rajbhar.

Mau District Superintendent Nitesh Pratap Singh said, "We are preparing a report to the court hearing the murder case informing that Raj Kumar is alive."
