Hyderabad, May 25

In a brutal murder that resembled the Shraddha Walkar case, the Hyderabad police have nabbed a 48-year-old stock trader for allegedly murdering his 55-year-old woman tenant. The accused is said to have later chopped the victim’s body parts and dumped her severed head at a garbage dump near the banks of a river on May 17.

Chilling reminder of shraddha case

The police said the arrest of B Chandra Mohan on Wednesday has helped them piece together gory details of the murder. The police said there was a dispute over a financial transaction between them and Mohan owed her Rs 7 lakh. The accused was in a relationship with the woman for the past several years.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
