The headless body of an unidentified woman was discovered inside a suitcase at Uttan beach in Bhayandar on Friday. A local resident stumbled upon the suitcase while taking a morning walk and immediately alerted the police. The Bhayandar-based Sagri Uttan police swiftly registered a case and initiated an investigation to identify the deceased.
Upon examination, the police noticed that the woman, whose hands and legs were tied with a rope, had an Om and trishul tattoo on her hand. It was evident that the victim had been brutally chopped into three pieces, with her head missing. The authorities are meticulously scrutinising the city’s missing records in an effort to establish the identity of the deceased.
