In an incident similar to Shraddha Walkar murder, the Hyderabad police arrested a man for killing a woman on Wednesday.
The accused has been identified as B Chandra Mohan (48).
The police said that the accused Chandra Mohan had killed the deceased Anuradha Reddy by stabbing her and later cutting her body into several pieces for disposal.
"On May 17, we received a complaint from a GHMC worker informing that at a garbage dumping place opposite Afzal Nagar Community Hall, near Musi river, beside Theegalguda road he found one head of an unidentified woman in a black cover," DCP South East zone CH Rupesh said.
"We (the police) had formed a total of eight teams to investigate the matter. After analysing the matter over a week we got one accused. After interrogation of the accused, the deceased has been identified as Y Anuradha Reddy aged 55 years," he said.
The accused was having a relationship with the deceased, . Out of their relationship, the accused accommodated the deceased in one of the parts of his house on the ground floor. Since 2018 the accused took a huge amount nearly Rs. 7 lakhs from the deceased but did not return the amount in spite of repeated requests by the deceased. The deceased was pressurizing the accused for the money, due to which the accused felt disgusted with the attitude of the deceased and hatched a plan to get rid of the deceased," he added.
Police said that the accused killed the woman on May 12 in a pre-planned event. "As per the plan, on May 12, in the afternoon the accused picked up a quarrel with the deceased on the issue of paying her amount and attacked her with a knife and inflicted stab injuries over her chest and stomach, as a result of which she died on the spot," the police official said.
