“Chavan is not cooperating with us. We have enough evidence to arrest her. We wanted to take her voice samples and check digital evidence on her mobile phone. We have evidence to prove that More and Chavan were talking to each other before More decided to die by suicide,” said a Kurla GRP officer.
“Chavan has been absconding since More’s death. We went to her residence and farmhouse but she was nowhere to be found. Her phone remains switched off. Our action plan is to trace her and arrest her,” the officer added.
