Overview
- Locals found 32-year-old Minky Sharma’s headless, dismembered body in a gunny bag on Agra’s Jawahar Bridge in the early hours of January 24, a day after she went missing.
- Police arrested Vinay Singh, a colleague, who they say confessed to killing Sharma at their office following disputes over a rejected marriage proposal and suspected contact with another man.
- Investigators say CCTV footage traced a man dragging a bag from the office and riding the victim’s scooter toward the bridge; officers recovered the scooter, a knife described as a coconut-cutting blade, and clothing.
- The body was identified through a distinctive gold nail paint shade matched by the family, who also say they doubt the stated relationship motive and believe others may be involved.
- An FIR was registered under BNS Sections 103(1) and 238 and relevant Arms Act provisions; forensic teams are processing the office crime scene as divers continue efforts to recover the severed head from reported disposal sites.
