Indore MBA Student Strangled, Body Found at Boyfriend's Home

Blackmail with Obscene Photos

The man, who originated from Mandsaur, had attempted to extort money from her by using objectionable photographs of her and had actually posted them on her university WhatsApp group, the woman’s father said.
The father of the victim has said his daughter fell into depression after obscene photos and videos of her circulated online.
The victim’s younger sister also told police that the victim had been dealing with serious depression since the missing complaint was submitted. The family claimed that the accused had been blackmailing her by sharing obscene content on social media, and was pushing her into emotional turmoil. 

Shocking Discovery in Dwarkapuri

The suspect’s locked house was discovered by police in Dwarkapuri, after local residents complained of a foul smell. The Deputy Commissioner of Police Shri Krishna Lalchandani said they found the woman's naked body inside.
The first-year student advised family members that she was going to her friend's house on Tuesday to join his birthday party, the police said. She told them that she would come home by 11 pm, though she never did, which prompted the family to file a complaint.

College Mate Turned Suspect

The boy, named Piyush Dhamnodiya, who lives in Mandsaur, is now being considered by police as the most likely suspect for the case.
“The girl was identified by her family as Khushbu Rathore (24). It has been confirmed that she was murdered by strangulation. Khushbu had been missing since February 10, and her father had lodged a missing complaint at Pandrinath Thana on February 11. Police suspect that a youth named Piyush Dhamnodiya, a resident of Mandsaur and her college mate, may have been involved in the murder," police said.

Manhunt for Suspect Piyush

The girl's death is believed to be strangulation, according to the police. Her body has been sent for post-mortem and the hunt is on to nab Piyush, who is absconding.
More details about the case will be revealed after the post-mortem report is out, the police said. Post-mortem report and further forensic analysis will clarify the exact sequence of events and motivation, the police said. At the same time, teams continue to chase the accused.
