Mumbai:
The man who allegedly stabbed a 20-year-old woman to death in Maharashtra’s Navi Mumbai last week has been arrested, police said today.
Dawood Shaikh, who already knew the victim, was arrested from Karnataka’s Gulbarga district, the police said.
The victim, Yashashree Shinde, had been reported missing, and her body was found dumped in the bushes near a railway station in Navi Mumbai’s Uran on Saturday.
According to officials, the body bore multiple injury marks and stab wounds, indicating that she was murdered very brutally.
“Our initial investigation suggests the woman and the man used to talk to each other. She was murdered when she went to meet him,” a senior police officer said.
The police confirmed that the victim’s family had filed a case under the POCSO act against Shaikh in 2019. They also said that the post-mortem has confirmed that she was stabbed.
She was a resident of Uran and used to work in Belapur, about 25 km away.
Earlier, a man, identified as Mohsin from Karnataka, was taken into custody by the Navi Mumbai police. Police got information from phone call details that he was in constant contact with Yashashree.
They are investigating his connection with the main accused.
Mohsin is likely to be brought to Uran today for further interrogation.
