JAIPUR: A CCTV video grab showing a 32-year-old man Anuj Sharma pushing a heavy suitcase along with the discovery of blood stains in his bathroom has led to his arrest in a sensational case from Jaipur.
According to Vidhyanagar Police, Anuj Sharma, alias Achintya Govind Das, allegedly killed his elderly aunt Saroj Sharma (60) by hitting her with a hammer on the head as “she was very controlling.” Her body was then allegedly chopped into 10 pieces, eight of which have been recovered.
The accused has been sent to police remand till December 20.
He had initially tried to miss lead the police, officials said. “Anuj Sharma had lodged a missing report at Vidyadhar Nagar police station on December 11 about his aunt. Later, during the police interrogation, some blood stains were found in the house, and on questioning, the accused said that it was caused by a nosebleed due to the cold weather,” said DCP North Parish Deshmukh.
“Initially we had been treating this as a missing report case until we found a CCTV video in which the accused was seen dragging a heavy suitcase on the afternoon of December 11,” the Police stated.
Anuj is a BTech graduate and has worked at a private firm. He has been out of work for eight years and is part of a religious group, claimed police. He was reportedly financially dependent on his aunt.
The police alleged that Anuj ‘confessed’ that his aunt used to dominate him since childhood. “On December 11, he asked her permission for going to Delhi for an event, and she refused. He could not control his anger and hit her on the head with a hammer,” DCP North Parish Deshmukh said.
Anuj allegedly chopped his aunt’s body into pieces with a marble cutter bought from a local market, police added. He then packed the body parts in a suitcase and a bucket and dumped them in a forest area located near the Jaipur-Sikar highway.
Further investigation into the case is underway.
