Live-in partner arrested after woman's body found stuffed in suitcase in Hyderabad
The Cyberabad police Friday announced the arrest of a man in connection with the death of a woman whose body was found stuffed inside a suitcase in Bachupally on Wednesday. The police Thursday arrested Vijay Toppa alias Wilson, 30, a native of Nepal and a chef at a fast food centre in Bachupally. The deceased woman was identified as Tara Bohra, 33, a Nepalese woman, who recently started living together with the accused. He reportedly confessed to strangling her during an argument about her pregnancy, the police said. On Wednesday, the suitcase was discovered in a secluded area of Vijaya Durga Owners Association Colony, Bachupally, after a local watchman reported the same to the police. Upon inspection, the body of a woman, initially estimated to be between 25-30 years old, was found inside. According to the police investigation, Bohra and Toppa met and developed a relationship through Facebook. Bohra, who was already married and had two children, arrived in Hyderabad on April 15 and began living with Toppa in a rented room in Indiramma Colony, Bowrampet. The murder allegedly occurred in the early morning hours of May 23. The couple reportedly had a heated argument concerning Bohra's pregnancy. In a fit of rage, Toppa strangled her with a nylon thread from a bag. He then stuffed her body into a large suitcase, carried it on his shoulders, and dumped it before fleeing, said K Suresh Kumar, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Balanagar zone). Five special teams were swiftly formed to apprehend the perpetrator. The police utilised CCTV footage from a local store and other intelligence to track Toppa's movements. He was being produced before the court on Friday for judicial remand proceedings.
