Describing the incident of brutal murder of a 32-year-old woman by her partner as “shocking”, the Maharashtra State Commission for Woman (MSCW) has sought a report from the Mira-Bhayander Vasai-Virar Police commissionerate on the issue.
MSCW Chairperson Rupali Chakankar has written to Mira-Bhayander Vasai-Virar Police chief Madhukar Pandey to submit a status report, under section 12 (2) and 12 (3) of the Maharashtra State Commission for Women, 1993, at the earliest.
“The victim woman was killed and her body was chopped into pieces by the suspect. The incident has put humanity to shame,” Chakankar said, adding that similar incidents are increasing and the state Home department needs to look into the issue.
