With No Money For Last Rites, Indore Man Abandons Partner's Body On Road

The decomposed body of a 57-year-old woman was found in a sack abandoned in the Chandan Nagar area on Sunday.

A 53-year-old man in Madhya Pradesh's Indore kept his live-in partner's body at his home for three days and later stuffed it in a sack and abandoned it on the road as he did not have money for her last rites, police said on Monday.

The decomposed body of a 57-year-old woman was found in a sack abandoned in the Chandan Nagar area on Sunday, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Nandini Sharma told PTI.

"We did not find any injury on the woman's body. A post-mortem showed that she was suffering from liver-related problems and other diseases for a long time, which led to her natural death," she said.
