Buxar (Bihar): The burnt body of a young woman, allegedly shot dead after being raped, was recovered on Tuesday in Bihar Buxar’s district, police said.

The body was spotted near Kukuda village by the local residents following which the entire area was in a state of shock.

Police suspect that the woman was first shot dead, and then an attempt was made to burn the body to conceal her identity and destroy the evidence. Police have also recovered a cartridge from the spot.

Some sources claimed that the woman was raped before being killed.

The incident bears similarity with the gang-rape and murder of a 25-year-old veterinarian in Hyderabad last week whose body was burnt by the perpetrators after committing the crime.

Buxar Superintendent of Police Upendra Nath Verma told IANS: “The woman has not been identified so far. The girl’s age and alleged rape with her can be confirmed only after medical examination.”

He said that the body is completely burnt and the face could not be not seen properly as well.

Verma said the body has been sent to Buxar Sadar Hospital for post-mortem and the police are investigating the matter.

He said that the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) team has also been contacted to assist in the probe.

The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.

Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.

 

The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards.
