The deceased had gone to a nearby market to buy vegetables three days back but didn’t return home. But much to the amazement of family members and villagers, his body was found floating in the village pond this morning.
A few villagers first saw the body when they went there for cleanse. They immediately informed the family members about the incident.
Later, the body was recovered by the local police and was sent for post-mortem. After registering a case, the police started an investigation into the matter.
