In a gruesome incident, an ex-Army man murdered his wife, chopped her body into parts, and then boiled them in a pressure cooker before dumping the remains in a lake.

 

Gurumurthy who at present is working as a security guard killed his 35-year-old wife (Puttavenkata Madhavi) on January 15. 

 

Meanwhile, the Rachakonda police is making all efforts to recover the body parts of a woman. 

 

The police are interrogating the man, who claimed to have dumped the body in a lake. 

 

"Efforts are being made, but the body parts could not be found. It still looks like a missing case. The suspect is being questioned. Efforts were being made to obtain clues with regard to the woman going missing and other aspects of the case," a police official stated. 

 

The officials are faced with a challenging situation as they are yet to recover the woman's mortal remains, though the suspect had already been picked up. 

The parents of the woman raised suspicion of the woman's husband, another official said. 

 

On the other hand, no other leads were immediately available to take the investigation forward on a different track, police said. 

 

Meanwhile, some residents in the building where the family of the deceased lived at New Venkateshwara Colony at Jillelaguda, vacated or temporarily moved out of their flats out of fear of the gory crime that allegedly occurred in their residential premises.

 

Gurumurthy, the suspect, an ex-serviceman, was currently employed as a security guard.

 

He had even accompanied his in-laws when they complained to the Meerpet police on January 18.

 

Police had registered an FIR as 'woman missing'.

 

As per the FIR, the wife quarreled with Gurumurthy on January 16 and left their home without intimation to anyone. She did not return home, prompting the relatives to complain.

 

Gurumuthy is a native of Prakasam district of Andhra Pradesh. The couple had two children.
