The police said, Tamanna from Bihar married Afroz. However, the couple was unhappy with the marriage and they got separated. Tamanna then developed a relationship with Afroz's relative Intiqab. Last year, Intiqab and Tamanna got married in Bengaluru against the wishes of the family.

From then on, Intiqab's family was angry that Tamanna ruined the reputation of the family. Soon, Nawab plotted against Tamanna and killed her. 

Three days ago, an unidentified body of a woman was found inside an abandoned drum at SMVT railway station. The CCTV footage accessed by the police also showed three persons carrying the drum and leaving it at the railway station.
