Chilling Crime Shocks India: MP Man Kills and Hides Live-in Partner’s Body in Fridge for 6 Months
In a chilling discovery in Dewas, Madhya Pradesh, police uncovered the decomposed body of Pinky alias Pratibha Prajapati in a refrigerator, where it had been hidden for over six months. The body was discovered after the current tenant, Balveer Rajput, broke the lock of the room previously occupied by the suspect, Sanjay Patidar. The house, owned by Dhirendra Shrivastava who has been residing in Dubai, had the ground floor rented out but kept two rooms locked at Patidar’s request, claiming he would return for his belongings.
Balveer, frustrated with high electricity bills, turned off the still-running refrigerator only to find the grisly secret the next morning as a putrid odor filled the area, prompting neighbors to alert the police. Upon investigation, the police identified Patidar as the primary suspect after neighbors recalled that a woman lived with him until March 2024 when she suddenly disappeared. Patidar reportedly told others that Pratibha, his live-in partner of five years, had returned to her parental home.
Upon arrest, Patidar confessed to strangling Pratibha with the help of Vinod Dave, due to pressure from Pratibha for marriage, which he opposed due to his existing obligations to his wife and children. After the murder, they hid her body in the refrigerator and fled, with Patidar returning bi-weekly to check on it. The police are coordinating with authorities in Rajasthan to interrogate Vinod, currently imprisoned for another crime.
Forensic teams have collected evidence, and a post-mortem examination has been conducted. The community expressed shock, as Pratibha was known for her social nature and bangle business. This harrowing incident underscores the hidden dangers that can lurk unnoticed within ordinary neighborhoods.
