In yet another shocking crime, a 30-year-old woman was brutally murdered in Hyderabad, allegedly by her husband. Her body was found wrapped in a huge plastic cover that had been sealed with tape, at a railway station in Dabeerpura.

The deceased has been identified as Zeba Naaz.

Her husband, Akbar Ali Khan alias Haider, who is absconding, allegedly killed her and dumped her body and fled two days ago. Police suspect that the accused could have fled to Dubai.   

The reason for the murder is yet to be found. Zeba was a resident of King Koti, while her husband resided in Farhat Nagar. The accused was working in Dubai until recently.

Two days ago, Zeba's mother filed a missing complaint in Narayanaguda police station, and that’s how police were able to identify the deceased.

Police found the body at around 1 am on Sunday, after locals noticed blood oozing out of the huge plastic cover and alerted the police. After retrieving the body, police sent it for autopsy to the state-run Osmania General Hospital.

In the autopsy, it was revealed that the victim had suffered head injuries.

Zeba had three sons. It is reported that Zeba was the third wife of the accused.

Police couldn’t trace the accused. However, they interrogated his parents, who reside in Farhat Nagar, Dabeerpura.      

Speaking to TNM, Dabeerpura Inspector Venkanna Naik said, “We interrogated the accused’s parents. They claim that they don’t know his whereabouts. We suspect that he must have fled to Dubai after committing the crime. We are not sure about it though. We are searching for him in the city.”

Police have registered a case under IPC section 300.

This incident is similar to the sensational murder in February of the 8-month-pregnant woman I'm Gachibowli, who was chopped into pieces and packed in two gunny bags.
