The Kalachowkie police, investigating the murder of 55-year-old Veena Jain allegedly at the hands of her daughter Rimple, have found that the latter poured acid on the body parts and tried to burn them as well. Rimple, 25, was arrested on March 14 and is currently in police custody. Her interrogation and a detailed search of the house have revealed some chilling details about the already horrifying crime, said officers. 

“Immediately after Veena’s death, Rimple bought the cutting machine from a hardware story and also got acid, room freshers, perfume and phenyl solution from a local medical store. After cutting off Veena’s hands, she placed then in a steel tank and poured acid on them. She was expecting the acid to dissolve the hands but it did not work,” said a police officer.
