Detectives traced the crime to Madho, also known as Makeshwar Yadav, who was taken into custody after a preliminary inquiry linked him to the disappearance. The suspect’s identification prompted a forensic search of the residence.
During the house‑to‑house excavation, officers recovered the victim’s body from a deep pit beneath the floorboards, confirming the murder after five days of the initial report. The recovered remains have been handed over to the forensic laboratory for further examination.
