According to police sources, there had been a long-standing domestic dispute between Manowara and her husband, Firoz Halder, who is now absconding and suspected to be behind the double murder.

According to a release from the Cyberabad Police Commissionerate, the victim, who had been missing for three days, was spotted intoxicated near a pillar on September 14.

According to the police, the accused, her husband Isaac (42), attacked her with a knife at around 6:30 am as she was preparing to take a bath.

According to police sources, the 13-year-old student went missing on August 28 after attending private tuition at Pal’s residence in Rampurhat.

Preliminary investigation by police revealed the incident was a fallout of a love-triangle involving the deceased, the attacker and a minor girl.

The immediate motive behind the murder could not be immediately ascertained as the accused, Taha, is continuously changing his statement, the sources added.

According to police, the victim had met one of the suspects, Karthik, on Instagram about two months ago, which led to an online relationship.

The woman has been sent to a rehabilitation centre in Balasore, and a medical examination was conducted on Wednesday.

Police have identified the accused as Ramesh Roy, a local resident, who is currently absconding.

Police said Rohit admitted to killing his wife under pressure from Ritu, with whom he had been in a long-term relationship.

Superintendent of Police Vikash Kumar said that the two men, Ankur Verma and Harshit Pandey, were arrested after a police encounter and have confessed to the crime during preliminary questioning.

Police are still trying to determine why the body was dismembered and dumped in so many locations.
