Pune: Husband Killed Over Affair, Body Dumped in Nira River – Two in Custody
The discovery of an unidentified man’s body in a gunny bag in the Nira River near Sarola village, located about 55 km from Pune, has sent shockwaves through the community. The victim, believed to be around 40 years old, was found strangled, raising suspicions of foul play.
After the discovery of the body, a murder case was filed. An officer from the Rajgad police explained that local residents had spotted the gunny bag near a riverside eatery. Concerned, the residents promptly contacted the police, who arrived and found the body inside.
The victim’s limbs were tied, and a striking detail was noted: the word “Om” tattooed on his right hand. This information could be crucial in helping investigators identify the victim and piece together the events leading up to his death. The victim, identified as Siddheshwar Bhise, was a resident of Hadapsar.
The police apprehended two suspects, Yogita Siddheshwar Bhise and Shivaji Sutar. During investigation, the police allegedly uncovered a tragic love triangle: Yogita was engaged in an extramarital affair with Shivaji Sutar. The night of the incident, Sutar visited Yogita, and upon discovering this, Siddheshwar confronted them.
A heated argument ensued, culminating in Siddheshwar’s murder. His body was then concealed in a gunny bag, transported to Sarola on the Pune-Satara Road, and dumped into the river around 1:30 AM.
A tag on the victim’s shirt provided crucial identification, leading to the swift arrest of the suspects within eight hours. The Rajgad Police are diligently pursuing their investigation to uncover further details and ensure justice is served.
