A shocking case of alleged murder has surfaced in Nalasopara, Mumbai, where a woman reportedly killed her husband and buried his body beneath their home’s floor. The accused, identified as Chaman alias Gudiya Devi, and her alleged partner Monu Vishwakarma are currently absconding.

The incident came to light after the victim, 36-year-old Vijay Chauhan, had been missing for over two weeks. Concerned about his sudden disappearance and lack of communication, Chauhan’s brother visited the house, only to be met with a strong odor and newly tiled flooring. Suspecting foul play, family members alerted the police and dug into the floor, where they discovered Chauhan’s decomposed body buried around four feet deep.

Preliminary police investigations suggest that the murder was premeditated. Authorities believe the pit used to bury the body was dug approximately 12 days before the murder. After the crime, the floor was tiled over to conceal the grave. Reports indicate that Chaman and Monu may have been having an extramarital affair.

The couple had recently moved into the newly built house and had a two-year-old son. Investigators also suspect financial motives, as Chauhan had received an insurance payout of ₹6 lakh shortly before his death. Police believe Chaman used his phone to generate OTPs and make unauthorized bank withdrawals after his disappearance.

CCTV footage captured the accused woman near the residence just days before the discovery of the body. A murder case has been registered under IPC sections relating to homicide and evidence destruction. Police teams are actively searching for the two suspects and the missing child.
