UP woman forced to drink alcohol, choked to death and then burnt over property dispute, 2 held
Lucknow/IBNS: A property dealer and his business partner have been arrested for allegedly murdering a woman over a property dispute in Uttar Pradesh's Etawah, media reports said.
The victim, 25-year-old Anjali, was first called by the accused, Shivendra Yadav, 26, and his aide Gaurav, 19, to hand over the property papers.
They then forced Anjali to consume alcohol and choked her to death.
They even burnt her and threw her body into a river, the police said.
The body of Anjali, who had been missing for five days, was recovered in a mutilated state on Saturday near the river.
The accused also made a video call to his father and wife to show the victim's body, the police said.
The police have started an investigation after Anjali's family members found her burnt scooter near a drain and accused the property dealer of murder.
Her sister, Kiran, said the accused had taken Rs 6 lakh from Anjali for land. She claimed he then called her on the pretext of giving her the papers and killed her.
Yadav and his partner confessed to the crime during police interrogation.
