A decomposed body of a 33‑year‑old woman, identified as Ashrafi alias Siya from Gondia, Maharashtra, was recovered from a septic tank in an empty plot in Bhopal’s Nishatpura area. Police say Siya and her married lover, Sameer, met on Instagram and she moved to Bhopal to live with him. After frequent disputes, Sameer allegedly strangled her to death and, with help from his family, stuffed her body into an iron box and dumped it in the tank to hide the crime. Police have arrested four family members involved, while the main accused remains absconding. (PC: NDTV)
