Rape accused chops minor girl into pieces, dumps body parts in river in Odisha; CCTV footage surfaces 

At a time when the macabre act of a rape accused, who was out on bail, killing a minor girl and later chopping her body into pieces before dumping them in a drain in Rourkela has sent shockwaves across Odisha, a CCTV footage of the accused carrying the minor girl on a bike before the crime has surfaced.

In the CCTV footage, obtained from the Beheramala area in Jharsuguda, the accused, identified as Kunu Kisan, can be seen carrying the minor girl on a bike. Though another person was spotted near the bike, his identity and involvement in the crime is yet to be ascertained.

As per the allegation, accused Kisan abducted and killed the minor girl on December 7. Later, during interrogation, Kisan confessed to his crime and gave details to the probe team about the various grim sites where the dismembered parts were dumped.

While the limbs of the missing minor girl were found near the densely wooded area of Hanuman Vatika forest, the torso was found wrapped in a sack and the head was found in the Brahmani river near the Balughat area.

“The accused was previously involved in a POCSO case and was accorded bail two months ago. The accused suspected that his conviction was sure if the minor girl had given a statement. Hence, he hatched a plan to eliminate the girl once and for all,” Jharsuguda Superintendent of Police (SP) Parmar Smit Parshottamdas said in a presser.

“During the investigation, information about the girl was found from the CCTV footage. The girl had gone on a bike with two youths. One of the boys was caught and questioned. During interrogation, it was found that the girl was murdered and the body was cut into pieces and thrown at two places,” the SP added.
