Fbd murder: Cops say woman also raped by her father-in-law
Faridabad: Investigation into the murder of a woman, whose body was found buried in a sealed pit in front of the family's house in the city, has uncovered a sordid trail of events, prompting cops to add rape charges to the FIR.
Police said on Wednesday the 25-year-old's father-in-law was the main conspirator, but her mother-in-law and husband were involved too.
On April 15, the family sent the mother-in-law to a relative's wedding in UP. The father-in-law had already gotten a 10-foot-deep pit dug up along a road outside his home. He told neighbours he was getting a drain built at the spot to prevent waterlogging in the area. On the evening of April 21, the father-in-law allegedly added sedatives to sugarcane juice and gave it to the woman.
As she fell unconscious, he allegedly sexually assaulted her and strangled her with a dupatta.

He took the help of his son and the woman's husband to bury the body in the pit in the dead of the night. The pit was filled with sand using an earthmover, and a mason was called in to seal it with concrete by the next morning.
"We have added rape sections in the case. The father-in-law of the woman confessed to the crime," a senior police officer said.

Faridabad police spokesperson Yashpal said family dispute could be a motive for the murder. The woman got married in June 2023 and was considering getting a divorce, he said.
The case emerged last week, when the woman's father – based in UP's Firozabad – approached Faridabad police and urged them to investigate the in-laws for murder. The 25-year-old was reported missing by her family on April 25. The in-laws had told their neighbours that she had eloped.
Based on the complaint, police found the body and excavated it from the pit on June 20. They arrested the father-in-law (54) on June 21.
Initially, the father-in-law told cops that he acted alone in the murder, and his son and daughter were sleeping inside the house when he strangled the 25-year-old.
A police source said it appears the family was involved in orchestrating the murder, but the others were not aware of the sexual assault.
Investigators on June 25 arrested the woman's mother-in-law (45), and her husband is on the run. The three accused have been named in the FIR and charged under BNS sections for murder, destruction of evidence and rape. Cops are probing if the woman's sister-in-law was in on the plan too.

Telangana: Teacher suspended and booked following classroom demo with cow's brain; police launch investigation
HYDERABAD: What began as a well-intended biology demonstration turned into a controversy in Telangana's Vikarabad district. A biology teacher at the zilla parishad high school (girls) in Yalal mandal was suspended and booked under the Telangana Prohibition of Cow Slaughter and Animal Preservation Act after she brought an animal's brain into the classroom to teach students about brain anatomy. While the teacher claimed the brain was that of a sheep, several students insisted she had identified it as a cow's brain during the class. The incident occurred on June 24. Biology teacher Kasim Bi brought the brain to school in a tiffin box and used it during a standard 10 science class to demonstrate the structure and function of the human brain.
