Shraddha-Like Murder Case In Chhattisgarh, Man Chops Wife's Body Into Pieces. Detained

In a shocking case reported from Chattisgarh, a man identified was detained by police for allegedly killing his wife. He allegedly chopped her body into pieces after killing her.

New Delhi: In a shocking case reported from Chattisgarh, a man identified as Pavan Thakur was detained by police for allegedly killing his wife Sati Sahu. He allegedly chopped her body into pieces and dumped them in a water tank in his house in Uslapur, Bilaspur.

According to news agency ANI, the man is said to have killed his wife on suspicions of infidelity. The body was recovered and police said that it may have been dumped one or two months ago.

The Chattisgarh case bears similarity to the recent Shraddha Walkar case wherein accused Aaftab Amin Poonawalla killed his live-in partner and then chopped her body into several pieces. After killing her, he stored the body parts in a 300-liter refrigerator and disposed of them in the Chhatarpur forest near his house over a period of three months.

On January 24, the police filed the chargesheet in the case which contains over 6,000 pages. The court had on February 7 taken cognisance of the chargesheet.

According to news agency IANS, Poonawala, in one of his applications, had alleged that the police's chargesheet -- prepared on the basis of forensic and electronic evidence, having around 100 witnesses -- has "falsely implicated" him in the case.

He had also argued that the prosecution intentionally provided a digital copy of the chargesheet, which is not legible.

Delhi court will now hear the charges against Aaftab Poonawala tomorrow (March 7).

Meanwhile, more details about the Chattisgarh case are awaited.
