Telangana News: The murder investigation involving a 35-year-old woman from Hyderabad has taken a disturbing turn, as authorities struggle to locate any remains of the victim. The case centers around allegations that her husband, Gurumurthy, a retired Army soldier, brutally killed her and subsequently dismembered her body.
In a chilling confession, Gurumurthy admitted to the police that he killed his wife, P Venkata Madhavi, during a heated argument. He claimed to have struck her against a wall, resulting in her immediate death. Following this, he allegedly dismembered her body using kitchen knives and boiled the parts in a pressure cooker for several hours in an attempt to destroy evidence of the crime.
The accused stated that he then disposed of the remains in various locations, including a lake at Jillelaguda on the outskirts of Hyderabad.Despite his confession, police have yet to recover any body parts. "We cannot go by mere claims. We are collecting all technical and scientific pieces of evidence. The case is under investigation," stated Commissioner of Police G Sudheer Babu. Investigators are currently corroborating forensic evidence to determine the veracity of Gurumurthy's claims.
As the investigation unfolds, authorities have collected several items from the suspect's residence, including a pressure cooker, water heater, and knives believed to be involved in the crime. However, Deputy Commissioner of Police Ch Praveen Kumar noted that no body parts have been found thus far. "As of now, we don’t have any reasons to believe it was a premeditated crime.
It seems like the result of a petty quarrel," he explained.The victim was reported missing on January 18 after her mother filed a complaint with the police. Madhavi had last been seen leaving her home following an argument with Gurumurthy on January 16. While police have taken Gurumurthy into custody for questioning, no formal arrest has been made as they continue their investigation.
This horrific case has shocked the local community and raised numerous questions about domestic violence and its devastating consequences. As investigators work tirelessly to uncover the truth behind this tragedy, the search for justice for P Venkata Madhavi continues.
