Suspected murder of woman found in city apartment, partner main suspect.

In a shocking incident, a young woman was found dead in a rented apartment in Bhubaneswar on Friday. The police, who were alerted by the neighbors, suspect that she may have been murdered. The victim, identified as Jyotirekha Parida from Koraput district, was in a live-in relationship with a man named Priyaranjan Patra. However, when the police arrived at the scene, Priyaranjan was nowhere to be found, making him the prime suspect in this case, according to IIC Khandagiri, Abhimanyu Das.

According to sources from the Khandagiri Police, the neighbors noticed a foul smell coming from Jyotirekha's apartment early on Friday. When they received no response after knocking on her door, they decided to break in and were horrified to discover her body lying on a wooden table. Upon further investigation, the police found no suicide note in the flat, and Priyaranjan's phone was switched off, making it difficult for them to reach him.

Meanwhile, the victim's parents have come forward and accused Priyaranjan of murdering their daughter. The victim's father stated that in February of this year, Jyotirekha had eloped with Priyaranjan, who was aided by two of his friends. However, their relationship soon turned sour due to personal issues, and Priyaranjan even went to the extent of threatening to kill Jyotirekha and bury her. The victim's father admitted to not taking these threats seriously, assuming it was just a lover's quarrel that would eventually blow over. However, now he regrets not taking the matter more seriously.

The Khandagiri Police have registered a case and sent the victim's body for postmortem. They have also discovered that Priyaranjan is from Ganjam district and have launched a manhunt to find him. "We have filed a case against Priyaranjan based on the complaint from the victim's parents, and we are actively searching for him," added Das.

This tragic incident has left the community in shock and has raised concerns about the safety of women in the city. The investigation is ongoing, and the police are determined to bring the culprit to justice.
