November 16, 2022: Jabalpur police is yet to arrest Abhijit Patidar, who claims to have killed Shilpa Jharia whose dead body was recovered from Mekhla Resort in Madhya Pradesh on November 8th.
Even as horrific details of the murder of a woman in Delhi, allegedly by her male live-in partner, is still the hot topic of discussion, news of another horrific killing has come to light, this time from Madhya Pradesh, where a man allegedly killed a woman, shot a video with the victim's body and posted it on social media.
The Police are still on the lookout for Abhijit Patidar, who claims to have killed Shilpa Jharia, 25, by slitting her throat. The blood-smeared body of the victim was recovered from a room at Mekhla Resort in Jabalpur.
In a viral video Patidar says, "Bewafai Nahi Karne Ka" (do not be unfaithful). He then lifts a blanket to reveal a woman lying in bed, with her throat slit.
Abhijit names Jitendra Kumar, a trader from Patna and his business partner and alleges that the victim had affairs with both of them.
Abhijit claimed that the victim had borrowed 12 Lakhs Rupees from Jitendra and fled to Jabalpur. It was upon Jitendra's instructions that he murdered the woman, Abhijit claimed.
In a third post, Abhijit says: "Babu heaven mein phir milenge" which translates to “My dear we shall meet again in heaven”.
Jitendra and Sumit have been arrested from Bihar and Jabalpur. The Police is currently interrogating them.
CCTV footage revealed that Abhijit was all alone for the first night. The next day, Shilpa came to meet him at the resort in the afternoon and they had ordered food. An hour later, Abhijit left the hotel alone locking the room.
On November 8, the hotel management broke the door and found the Shilpa's body.
Four special teams, along with the police's cyber cell, are looking out for the accused.
