Body retrieved from refrigerator in Tripura, six arrested
Agartala: In a chilling case that has sent shockwaves across Tripura, police have arrested six people on Wednesday, including a doctor and his parents, for the alleged murder of a 24-year-old man whose body was found stuffed inside a refrigerator in Gandacherra, Dhalai district. The crime reportedly occurred on June 8 night in Agartala and the body was recovered three days later. West Tripura district SP Kiran Kumar told reporters that the murder appears to have been driven by a love triangle involving the victim and the prime accused. The deceased, Sariful Islam, an electrician associated with the Agartala Smart City Project, was allegedly lured to the residence of doctor Dibakar Saha (29) in the Indranagar locality of the city under the pretext of receiving a gift. Upon arrival, Sariful found three others present — Animesh Yadav (21), Nabanit Das (25), and Jaydeep Das (20). Investigators believe the murder was premeditated. "Initial findings suggest that Dibakar Saha was in love with a woman who happened to be his cousin. The victim, Sariful, was also in a romantic relationship with the same woman. Jealousy and rivalry appear to be the primary motives behind the crime," SP Kumar said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo According to the police, the group strangled Sariful to death and concealed his body in a trolley bag.
