Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh), January 6 (ANI): Madhya Pradesh Police have cracked a blind murder case of a woman whose body was found in a forest area of Gwalior district, using a combination of a minor food clue, digital payment records, CCTV footage, and artificial intelligence tools, an official said.
The unidentified woman’s body was discovered on December 29 in a forest area under the jurisdiction of Gola Ka Mandir police station. Her face had been brutally crushed with a heavy rock, making identification difficult. Police later used AI technology to reconstruct her facial sketch.
Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Dharmvir Singh said the investigation took a breakthrough turn when a piece of omelette was found during the examination of the body. Acting on this clue, police questioned food stalls within a 200-metre radius and learned that a woman had eaten an omelette with two men shortly before her death.
CCTV footage from the area confirmed the presence of the trio, and investigators further traced an online payment made for the omelette. Following the digital trail, police arrested the accused, identified as Sachin Sen, a resident of Gwalior, on Tuesday morning.
Further investigation revealed that the woman was originally from Tikamgarh and had been living in Gwalior with her husband earlier. About a week before the murder, she came into contact with Sachin Sen and began living with him. SSP Singh said the accused suspected her of having relationships with other men and, driven by resentment, planned her murder.
The accused allegedly took the woman to a forested area near the main road and killed her by crushing her head with a rock. Police recovered key evidence, including a jacket and other items, from the crime scene. Coordination with Tikamgarh Police, forensic inputs, CCTV analysis, and AI-assisted identification helped confirm the victim’s identity and establish the accused’s involvement.
The woman had been living with the accused for the past seven to eight days before the murder, the SSP added. (ANI)
