A girl from West Bengal was brutally murdered in Patna. His body was found in the room of a house located in Gardanibagh, the residential colony closest to the Bihar Assembly. The shocking thing is that there was a very strong smell coming from the dead body. The dead body of the girl was lying in the room for the last 10 days. On Thursday, after a strong smell came from the room, the landlord informed the Gardnibagh police station. After receiving the information, police from Gardanibagh police station reached the spot. The room was locked from outside.
Here, the police were stunned when they entered the room by breaking the lock of the room. The girl’s body was lying on the floor, wrapped in a sheet soaked in blood. Regarding this matter, Gardanibagh police station in-charge said that the girl has been identified as Kusum Ghosh (22), resident of Vardhaman, West Bengal. She was married. Kusum Ghosh was missing from her house for almost one and a half months. The family members had lodged a missing complaint of Kusum at Vardhaman police station. After the case was registered, Vardhaman police had reached Patna a few days ago and on the basis of location, had gone to Saristabad in Gardanibagh, where Kusum was living in a rented house.
