On Friday night, police got a call that a woman was lying in a pool of blood on the road at Kotnaka and stray dogs were nibbling her body. She was found with three stab injuries on her waist and back.
Inspector Kote said, “While the victim girl’s parents have named a suspect, Dawood Shaikh, prima facie, we have registered a case of murder against an unidentified accused. The victim girl’s parents have alleged that Shaikh murdered their daughter as she had registered an FIR of molestation and Pocso against Shaikh in the year 2019, after which he was arrested by Uran police and sent to jail.”
