MP doctor kills driver, chops body into pieces and puts them in acid | Sansani

A leading orthopaedic doctor was arrested here for allegedly killing his 30-year-old driver, chopping the body into over a dozen pieces and immersing them in acid at his residence in a bid to destroy the evidence, police said Tuesday. Dr Sunil Mantri, 56, killed Virendra Pachouri on Monday as the driver suspected that Mantri was having an illicit relationship with his wife.  He was arrested Tuesday. "Mantri's wife used to run a boutique at their home. However after her death, Pachouri's wife started running it.

The driver suspected Mantri was in an illicit relationship with his wife and so he allowed her to run it," said Superintendent of Police Arvind Saxena. Saxena said Mantri had first tried to placate Pachouri by hiring him as his driver on a salary of Rs 16,000 per month, but that did not stop him from threatening the doctor to stay away from his wife. On Tuesday, the SP said they received information about "suspicious activities" at Mantri's residence in Anand Nagar area of the city.
