Skeleton Discovery Sparks Murder Probe Claims
11 Apr
Summary
- Family claims skeleton found belongs to a missing woman from February.
- Parents allege police inaction after filing a missing person complaint.
- Police await CFSL report to confirm identity of remains.
Family members of Aarti, 21, who disappeared on February 11, 2026, suspect a skeleton discovered in the Phase 1 Industrial Area, Chandigarh, is hers. The family approached the police after seeing a recovery video online, alleging that authorities were negligent after a missing complaint was filed.
According to the family, Aarti left home on February 11, 2026, stating she would return shortly, but never did. They claim the police initially dismissed her absence, stating she was an adult and might have left voluntarily. A missing person report was reportedly filed on February 17, 2026, after days of the family's own search.
The family identified a ring and clothes found with the skeleton as Aarti's. Despite their insistence on a murder FIR, the body has not yet been released to them. Police are examining CCTV footage from surrounding areas and questioning individuals as they await a crucial CFSL report to confirm the identity of the remains.
