Bhubaneswar: A girl was taken by her boyfriend from Bhubaneswar to Surat and stabbed around 49 times with a knife as she kept insisting on getting married.
The incident came to light after Surat Police in Gujarat recovered the body of the girl from Anjani Industrial Estate. She was identified as Luni Das, a resident of Bhubaneswar in Odisha.
Investigation revealed that Luni was in a relationship with one Jagannath Goud for the past three years. As she kept insisting on marriage, Jagannath decided to get rid of her.
Jagannath brought Luni to Surat by Puri-Ahmedabad train and took her to a deserted place near the Anjani Industrial Estate. There he stabbed her around 49 times and left her dead.
Surat Police arrested Jagannath after examining more than 500 CCTV footage and Luni’s call details. Further investigation into the case is underway.
