"Monu was missing from his home for last five days and his family had lodged a missing complain with the police. During that time, neighbours of Meenu started complaining to her family that some foul smell was coming from their house, but her family made an excuse that it might be because of the death of some animal near their house," said a police officer.
Something in the air
However, on Wednesday, when the smell became unbearable, the neighbours called in the police. "As we searched the house, we found that the smell was coming from a steel box. On opening the box, we found body of Monu. We immediately informed his family members and took Meenu and her family members to the police station. During questioning, Meenu revealed that though she was engaged to Monu but he had been very rude to her and didn't want her take up a job. Five days back they had a heated argument in Meenu's home. The argument turned violent and Meenu killed Monu with help of her family members. Then they hid the body in a steel box in their house," the officer added. A case under section 302 of IPC was lodged and Meenu, her mother and her brother-in-law were arrested.
