Mumbai crime branch officers, investigating the case of 22-year-old MBBS student from JJ medical college, who went missing in 2021, claim to have recovered her identity card from accused Mithu Singh’s small eatery that he ran at Bandra bandstand. Sources have said that the police dug up the kitchen after they received information that Singh had buried the student’s identity card there. A witness had found the card a month after the woman went missing.

The family of the accused has claimed that the cops are planting evidence because they have nothing. Earlier the crime branch claimed to have found blood stains on a buoy seized from Singh’s house, which his family said may be from one of their relatives who suffers from varicose veins.
