As per authorities, a 32-year-old man allegedly killed his wife, dismembered her body into five pieces, and then buried the fragments under an empty water tank at his home in the Bilaspur region of Chhattisgarh.

The wife, Sati Sahu, learned that her husband, Pavan Singh Thakur, was engaged in a phone cash fraud and requested that he stop after learning of his unlawful activities. Sahu was strangled to death by Thakur after the couple argued on January 6. The corpse parts were then wrapped in polythene bags and placed in a water tank after being sliced up by him with a grinder-cutter.

Chhattisgarh murder case

The event was finally brought to light when the police raided the accused’s residence to look into the phoney cash ring further. When the police searched his house, they encountered the foul smell of decomposing flesh coming from the water tank.

An official claimed that on Sunday, the police found the body parts in the tank, which was housed in a room of the accused man’s leased home in the Sakri police station’s jurisdictional area in Uslapur.

According to Bilaspur Superintendent of Police Santosh Singh, the death was discovered after a squad from the anti-crime and cyber unit of the police conducted a raid on the home following a tip regarding the printing of counterfeit money there.

He said that on January 6 the accused strangled his wife Sati Sahu, 23, out of jealousy and mistrust.

According to the official, the police apprehended the suspect close to his home and found some fake currency in his possession. A colour printer, Xerox paper, and fake notes worth Rs. 500 and Rs. 200 were found by the police during a subsequent raid at the home.

The body parts, wrapped in tape and polythene, were discovered in an empty water tank maintained in that area after the police teams discovered a bad odour coming from it, the witness claimed.

The accused confessed during questioning that he thought his wife was having an adulterous relationship and that she was also interfering with the fabrication of counterfeit money, he added.

“The accused bought a cutting machine and a water tank after killing his wife. He attempted to set fire to the five pieces he cut from the woman’s body. In spite of this, he chose to hide the remnants in the water tank out of fear that he could be discovered owing to the burning smell, Singh claimed.

Before placing them inside the tank, the accused, according to him, taped up the remains and stored them underneath polythene. In Takhatpur village (Bilaspur district), the dad dropped off his two kids at his parents’ home after that, according to the official.

He stated that Sahu, a native of the nearby Mungeli area, had been married to the accused 10 years prior. According to the official, the man has been taken into custody on suspicion of both murder and producing fake money.

The Real Situational Facts

There have been an increasing number of cases in recent years where women have been brutally murdered by their spouses, boyfriends, or family members. Sharaddha Walkar, 27, was brutally murdered earlier in the year by her partner Aaftab Poonawala, who then dispersed her 35 pieces across the nation’s capital.

A similar incidence involving the murder by dismemberment of the husband’s wife by a man involved in a bogus financial fraud was recently reported from Chhattisgarh. After stuffing them into numerous polythene bags, he threw them all into a tank of empty water.
