Thane: A 24-year-old man has been arrested from a village in the Thane district in Maharashtra because he allegedly killed his girlfriend’s stepmother for opposing their relationship, police said on Thursday.
The body that was very decomposed from the 39-year-old victim was found on July 10 near the river in Guravali Village in Kalyan Taluka, they said.
During the probe, the police found that Sameer Dalvi, the woman’s daughter’s lover had killed her and threw away in the bushes on the banks of the river.
Dalvi fell in love with the victim’s half-child, although the latter opposed their relationship, police said.
“Recently, on the anniversary of the victim, the defendant had visited his house to greet him.
But his stepmother objected to His presence and asked him whether he was worthy of marrying his daughter.
Algae on it, he hatched the conspiracy to eliminate him and carry out his plan at 4 July, “said a police officer.
Victims worked in the Kalyan Dombivli Municipal Corporation (KDMC) maintenance department.
His family members do a search to track it, but in vain.
Then, reports of missing people were put forward at the Kalyan Taluka Police Station, he said, adding that Dalvi was arrested after his body was found.
The local court has returned Dalvi in police custody until July 17.
