Gujarat Man Found Buried in Factory; Wife and Others Arrested for MurderPreviousNext

In Jamnagar, Gujarat, police arrested a woman, Prithvi Mavadiya, her alleged lover Nilesh Kachhatia, and an associate for the murder of Jignesh Mavadiya, missing for over two years. Authorities allege they poisoned Jignesh with cyanide-laced alcohol and buried his body about 12 feet beneath a factory floor. The accused misled the family by claiming Jignesh had moved to Australia for work. The skeletal remains were recovered and sent for DNA confirmation, with investigations ongoing.
