A police officer from Madhubani said Jha was strangled.
“It was revealed in postmortem.
The body was identified by a family member based on the ring he had on one of his fingers, a mole on his feet and the remnants of his shirts he had worn on November 9,” he said.
The clerk said he seemed to be killed in another place and the criminals burned his body there because the grass and bushes were also scorched.
