As if the incessant spate of sexual crimes against hapless women was not enough of an ignominy and anomaly, now comes the latest instance of a 35 year old female scrap dealer being brutally murdered for the sake of her silver anklets in a village on Hyderabad's outskirts.......
Shankaramma, a 35 year old scrap dealer and wife of one Balappa from Kokapet was brutally murdered by two unidentified assailants late on Tuesday night/ early Wednesday morning at around 2:30 a.m. or so.......
According to police sources, the fifty plus tola silver anklets that adorned Shankaramma's ankles were the immediate reason or cause behind the gruesome murder and the chronology of events may have been as follows:
The unidentified miscreants knocked on Shankaramma's door at around 2:30 a.m. and gained entry into the same on the pretext of selling some scrap and other related items, they then proceeded to firstly throttle the victim and then brutalise her head with a boulder to make sure that she was well and truly dead........
They then proceeded to wreak the ultimate insult or humiliation on the body of the deceased by chopping of both her legs from below the knees with a sharp and pointed object and making good their escape with the victim's anklet adorned legs for company........
In the meanwhile, the hapless 12 year old son who had woken up on hearing the commotion was shocked and dismayed to see the body of his doting mother in this grotesque condition, he in turn informed his neighbours and they proceeded to inform both the police as well as the unfortunate husband of the victim who was spending the night at his friend's place in an adjoining/ neighbouring village.......
The area police has already constituted two teams to investigate the matter and launched a massive manhunt for the culprits, the mutilated body has been sent to a government hospital for a post mortem and a case has been registered under section 302 (Murder) of the Indian Penal Code as the yet unidentified assailants........
