In a shocking incident which had perplexed police officialsin Nagpur, a woman's body had been found recently but could not be identified because her face had been mutilated. While initial investigations revealed that the woman had been murdered, a tattoo on her body eventually helped cops identify her as a city-based model. Her husband now has been detained as the prime suspect.

The tattoo on the dead body eventually led police officials to identify the victim as Khushi Parihar, a model who was married to a man called Ashraf. The couple had several affectionate photos on their social media handles but recent times had reportedly resulted in discord between the two. Itis alleged that Ashraf was extremely unhappy with the free-willed nature ofKhushi who had participated, and even won, many modelling contests. It is also reported that she had defied her parents and married Ashraf. It is this independent nature of Khushi that may have eventually irked Ashraf who,allegedly, murdered her. So that the body cannot be identified, he is suspected to have disfigured her face.

Sanjay Jogdar, Deputy Superintendent of Police, has said that Khushi's lifestyle may have been the single biggest reason for fights andarguments between the couple. Ashraf, it is reported, took Khushi on a longdrive last Friday and the two reportedly had a heated argument inside the car. Ashrafis suspected to have hit Khushi in a fit of rage and used a heavy object torepeatedly strike her with. Cops suspect that it was a pre-meditated murderbecause Ashraf had carried a bottle of acid with him which he eventually usedon Khushi's face after she had died. This was done so that her body could notbe identified.

Cops say that when Ashraf was arrested, he claimed innocencebut later reportedly admitted to having killed Khushi.
