'Fearing for her life, Kaur gave him her ATM card and its PIN number. He killed her after that,' she said.

'Himanshu was jobless and was in dire need of money for supporting a luxurious life style and getting a portfolio prepared to pursue his modelling career. After killing Kaur, he decamped with her ATM card, laptop and I-Pod after locking the doors of the room,' Singh said.

Himanshu, a resident of Ludhiana in Punjab, had also withdrawn a large sum of money from the bank account of the victim using her ATM card, she added.
