A grim discovery shocked the Vasai area on Thursday morning as the body of an unidentified man, bearing multiple stab wounds, was found in a secluded location. The incident has prompted a murder investigation by the Waliv police.
Discovery of the Body and Police Response
Early on Thursday, locals or passersby stumbled upon the horrifying scene in a remote spot within the jurisdiction of the Waliv police station in Vasai (East). The victim, whose identity remains a mystery, had sustained severe stab injuries on his neck, shoulder, and back.
Officials from the Waliv police station swiftly reached the location upon receiving information. The body was carefully retrieved and sent for a detailed postmortem examination to ascertain the exact cause of death and gather potential forensic evidence.
Investigation Points to Murder at the Scene
Senior police officials involved in the preliminary investigation stated that the murder was likely committed at the very spot where the body was discovered. This suggests the location was not merely a dumping ground but the primary crime scene.
The police have registered a formal case under relevant sections of murder. The primary focus of the investigation is now to establish the identity of the deceased, which is a crucial step towards uncovering a motive and tracking down the perpetrator or perpetrators.
Ongoing Probe and Public Appeal
The investigation is in its early stages. Police are expected to comb the area for CCTV footage, question local residents, and use the postmortem report to build a timeline of events. The lack of identification currently poses a significant challenge.
Authorities may soon release a description of the deceased to the public, appealing for anyone with missing relatives or information about suspicious activity in the Waliv, Vasai area to come forward and assist with the inquiry.
