Woman's Body Recovered From Refrigerator At Delhi Dhaba, Owner Arrested, Was Dating Victim
In yet another shocking incident in the national capital, a woman's body was found in a refrigerator at a 'dhaba' (eatery).
The eatery is located on the outskirts of Mitraon village in southwest Delhi and the police have arrested the 26-year-old dhaba owner?Sahil Gahlot,?who was in a relationship with the deceased.
Body was hidden in refrigerator
Vikram Singh, the Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police (Dwarka), said the information about the incident was received on Tuesday morning. Not only did the police become aware of the woman's murder, but it was revealed that the victim's body was hidden at the dhaba on the outskirts of the village.
Police reached the location and recovered the body. Accused Sahil Gahlot, a resident of Mitraon village, has been apprehended. Further legal action is being carried out, Singh told PTI.
Accused and victim were in relationship
A preliminary investigation has revealed that Gahlot was getting married on February 10 and the woman was objecting to it as they were in a relationship for a long time, Singh added.
"The woman was a resident of Jhajjar in Haryana. It has been claimed that she was threatening to implicate the man in a case if he married another woman," a source told the news agency.
Enraged by this, Gahlot allegedly killed her and hid the body inside the freezer of his dhaba.
Yet another gruesome murder in national capital
The shocking case has revived the appalling memory of the brutal killing of 27-year-old Shraddha Walkar, who was strangulated by her live-in partner Aaftab Amin Poonawala.?
Following Shraddha's death, Aaftab chopped her body into 35 pieces and stored it in a 300-litre refrigerator before disposing of it in parts in a Delhi forest.
The Delhi Police prepared a 6,636-page chargesheet?within 75 days after registering the case.?
The gruesome details of the murder, which sent shockwaves across the nation, were brought to the fore after the Delhi Police apprehended Aaftab on November 12 last year.
In the autopsy report of Shraddha Walkar's bones, it was found that her body was chopped into 35 pieces with an object resembling a saw.
The critical breakthrough came when 13 decayed body parts, primarily bone pieces, were recovered from the forests of South Delhi.?
Additionally, Aaftab also confessed to police that his relationship with Shraddha had been in conflict since the couple moved to Delhi and he killed her in a fit of rage after an argument.
