In the second case within four days, a charred body of a woman was found in Virar, near the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Expressway, on Thursday. The police recovered the body from a spot just 3 km away from the place where the previous body was found.
Jayant Bajbale, sub-divisional police officer, Virar, said, "The body has not been identified yet, as it's completely burnt. Some parts of the hair helped us understand that it was a woman."
Even the body that was recovered from the Mahadev Mandir area of Virar on Sunday has not been identified yet. "The body has been sent for a post-mortem and a murder case has been registered," Bajbale added.
