In a latest development in the Meerut murder case, the post-mortem report of victim Saurabh has revealed many shocking details. The report stated that his wife stabbed Saurabh three times and then viciously drove the knife into his heart.
As per the post-mortem report, Saurabh's head was also chopped off, and his body was cut into small pieces to fit into the drum. Even the doctors who conducted the post-mortem were shaken. Police said it sent a team to Himachal Pradesh for investigation of the matter.
In a bone-chilling turn of events, the woman and her partner allegedly killed her husband Sourabh, dismembered his body, and sealed his body parts in a drum filled with cement in Uttar Pradesh's Indiranagar, police said on Tuesday.
According to the Meerut City SP Ayush Vikram Singh, the accused have been identified as Muskan Rastogi and Sahil Shukla.
"A person named Saurabh Rajput, working in the Merchant Navy, came home on March 4 and had been missing since then," SP Ayush Vikram Singh told ANI. He further said that on the basis of suspicion, his wife Muskan Rastogi and her partner Sahil Shukla were called for questioning.
"During the questioning, Sahil Shukla confessed that on March 4, he and Muskan Rastogi stabbed Saurabh to death. They dismembered the body, put it in a drum and sealed it with cement. The police have recovered the body and sent it for post-mortem," he added.
The accused’s mother, who turned out to be the stepmother, has demanded a death sentence for her stepdaughter.
The police interrogated local shopkeepers to find out more about the murder case. The police is also probing how Class 12 pass-out Saurabh went to London, and the footage of dozens of CCTV cameras has been analysed by the police.
