Gruesome Incident in Andhra Pradesh

A horrifying incident has emerged from Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, where a married Indian Navy personnel allegedly murdered his former girlfriend. Following the crime, he dismembered her body into five parts, concealing three pieces in a refrigerator and a suitcase, while incinerating the other two. The police have apprehended the accused and are currently interrogating him.

Details of the Crime

According to law enforcement, the suspect ordered a knife online to carry out the murder. After killing her, he stored some body parts in a refrigerator and burned the head and hands in an empty area near Adavivaram last Sunday. The accused has been identified as Ravindra, 30, who is stationed at INS Dega.

How They Met

The victim, identified as Monica, 31, resided in the Tatichetla Palem area of Visakhapatnam and had been in contact with Ravindra since 2021, having met through a dating app. Over time, their relationship deepened, and they frequently met at various locations in Visakhapatnam, including parks and theaters.

Threats and Tensions

In 2024, Ravindra married another woman. According to police officials, he claimed that Monica had been threatening to inform his wife about their relationship. Additionally, she had borrowed 350,000 rupees from him. This led to frequent arguments, ultimately prompting him to plot her murder.

Execution of the Crime

On the day of the incident, Ravindra invited Monica to his flat in the Gajuwaka area of Visakhapatnam, where a heated argument ensued. He then strangled her to death. Afterward, he used the knife he had ordered online to dismember her body. He disposed of the head and hands in the Simhachalam area and hid the remaining body parts in a refrigerator and suitcase.

A Disturbing Parallel

This case echoes the horrific murder of Shraddha Walker, who was killed by her live-in partner Aftab in May 2022. Aftab allegedly dismembered Shraddha's body and stored the parts in a refrigerator, discarding them at various locations in the capital to avoid detection.
