The discovery of the decapitated and decomposed body of a Dalit married woman from a field in Samodha village, Bachhrawan, has caused a sensation. The deceased, identified as Soni, had been missing since October 26. The family has accused the police of failing to register a case despite a missing person complaint, causing anger among the villagers.
Villagers reported that the body was severely decomposed and her head was separated from the body. The discovery, which occurred in the Bachhrawan area, has caused a stir in the area.
Soni, a resident of Samodha village, was married to Guru Prasad of Ichauli village about eight years ago. Even after marriage, she lived with her mother, Kusuma Devi, at her parents’ home. Her eight-year-old daughter, Aarti, and approximately six-year-old son, Krishna, also lived with their mother.
Soni went missing from her home on the afternoon of October 26. Her mother, Kusum Devi, and other family members searched for her extensively, but were unable to find her.
According to Kusum Devi, she submitted a complaint regarding her daughter’s disappearance to the Bachhrawan police on October 30th. The family alleges that the police assured them of registering a case and searching for her, but did not even register a missing person report.
When contacted on the police station’s CUG number, a sub-inspector stated that no application related to the matter was recorded in the register or the GD. He denied receiving the application or registering a case.
This alleged police negligence has caused considerable anger among the villagers. The villagers believe that if the police had been vigilant in time, the accused could have been apprehended before the murder. The family has expressed suspicion that Soni was murdered and her body was dumped.
However, Circle Officer Pradeep Kumar stated that the case will be resolved soon.
