BHOPAL/INDORE: In a gruesome murder, the body of a woman was recovered from a refrigerator, months after she was brutally killed.

This incident occurred in Dewas district in Madhya Pradesh.

Pratibha Prajapati alias Pinky, lived with Sanjay Patidar, in a rented house in Dewas. The extremely foul stench coming from the place had drawn the attention of the neighbours.

In June 2024, Sanjay had left the house in Vrindavan Dham colony but kept possession of a portion. However, Pratibha was missing since then.

Patidar had a live-in relationship with Pratibha. But, he used to tell others that he was married. He reportedly told others that her mother had suffered an attack and had gone to latter's place. Since 2023, they were living here as live-in partners.

During the course of investigation, police found that Pratibha wanted Sanjay to marry her. She was insisting him to have a legal wedding. But Sanjay got irked and with the help of his friend, Vinod, he killed her and stuffed the body into a small refrigerator in the rented house.

Later, he kept the fridge on, and left. Recently, when power went off for a long time, the stench came out of the portion.
Subsequently, police were informed. Sanjay has been arrested. His friend, Vinod, is already in jail in connection with an other crime. He is lodged in Tonk jail.

The police are interrogating Sanjay. He has been charged with murder and concealing the evidences. Further investigation is on in the case.
