Man's Body Found Floating After Jewelry Theft
1 Feb
Summary
- A 55-year-old shopkeeper was found dead in a river.
- His body showed fatal injuries, and all jewelry was missing.
- Family demanded compensation and blocked roads after the discovery.
Kishanlal Bairwa, a 55-year-old grocery shop owner, was found deceased in the Kurjan river near Vijaynagar village on Saturday morning. His body, discovered about 6 kilometers from his home, exhibited severe skull injuries and was notably devoid of the heavy gold and silver ornaments he habitually wore.
Bairwa had been reported missing from his room-cum-shop earlier that morning after his family found him gone. The discovery of his body, suspected to be a murder for jewelry robbery, prompted a demonstration by his family and local representatives.
Protesters blocked the Bundi-Namana route, demanding compensation and government jobs. Authorities assured assistance as per norms, leading to the agreement for a post-mortem examination later that afternoon. A murder case has been registered against unidentified persons as the investigation continues.
