As per the SHO of Parsauni police station, the mother, who is the main suspect, has been apprehended, but her two sons are currently evading capture. The victim had reportedly been involved in a relationship with a young man from the same village, a situation that her parents and two brothers vehemently disapproved of.
Despite her firm determination to marry the youth she loved, her mother and brothers resorted to extreme measures, strangulating her to death. To hide their heinous act, they buried her lifeless body in an empty plot. However, some vigilant villagers sensed that something was amiss and promptly alerted the local authorities.
