Roja was killed by contract killers at the behest of her ex-wife.

HYDERABAD: A 30-year-old woman from Siddipet district of Telangana who allegedly got her estranged husband, a transgender person, murdered using contract killers, was arrested along with the two men hired to do the crime, police said on Sunday.

The woman, who allegedly offered Rs 18 lakh for the 'supari' (contract) to eliminate the 35-year-old transgender person, had paid Rs 4.6 lakh to two hired persons and got the transgender person "killed" on December 11 last year.

Police, who had initially registered a case of suspicious death, during the course of investigation arrested the woman and the two hired killers on Saturday on charge of murder.
