In another similar case, an unidentified body of a woman was found dumped in a box at the Kasara Ghat on Sunday. Police said that they received the information from the police control room, who was informed by some passerby, regarding foul smell at a spot on the ghat section.
Upon reaching the spot, police found a big cardboard box and a decomposed body in it. Police said that there were several injury marks on the body. Based on the preliminary investigation, police suspect that the woman was killed around 10 days back and the body later dumped in the ghat area. Presumably, the victim was in her 50s.
