In a shocking incident, a 25-year-old woman was found dead at her apartment in Guwahati on Sunday merely a few months after her wedding, following which police launched a manhunt for her husband. On September 6, after the complaints of foul smell from the neighbours, police arrived at the apartment where the couple who were married a few months ago were staying. They also told the police that they hadn't seen the couple for two days and their phones were also switched off. The police then broke the lock of the apartment and found a severed dead body of the woman. Her fingers were also half-chopped, the body had started to decompose, and her head was missing. The woman was identified as Riya Talukdar. On searching the house, police recovered the head of the woman in a polythene bag kept in the refrigerator. Her husband was nowhere to be found. The neighbours said that they last saw him on Friday.
