Hyderabad, Mar 18 (PTI) A man allegedly killed his cousin over a property dispute and threw her body parts in a lake, police said on Wednesday.
The man has been arrested.
The accused hit the woman (40) last month with a stick following an argument over a property issue resulting in her death. The accused (32) then kept her body in a bathroom.
The next day he took the body, with the help of another person, to a lake where he cut her legs with a saw and threw the body parts into the water body.
The accused and the deceased had purchased a property jointly and she demanded him to transfer her share which the former did not want to.
The woman , a widow, picked up a quarrel with him as he objected to her “intimacy” with a person, police said, citing the arrested person’s claims.
The body parts were recovered while trying to trace her as she went missing, police added. PTI SJR SJR SA
