A tragic discovery unfolded in Dhauj village when the decomposed body of a girl was excavated from her home, police confirmed on Sunday.

The case came to light after the girl's father, residing in Saudi Arabia, filed a complaint, raising concerns over his inability to contact his daughter since June 7, authorities revealed. In response, the girl's mother was summoned for questioning, where she recounted that her daughter had run away with a man a year ago, but later returned. The mother alleged that the daughter, tormented by relatives' taunts, hanged herself in September 2023 and was subsequently buried in the house.

Authorities, however, suspect foul play involving the family. Based on the mother's statement, a comprehensive investigative team, including Assistant Commissioner of Police (Mujesar) Mahesh Sheoran, the Tehsildar of Badkhal, forensic experts, and the local police, unearthed the body. It has been sent to Badshah Khan Hospital, with a post-mortem scheduled at Nalhar Medical College in Nuh district. The Crime Branch has now joined the investigation, awaiting the post-mortem results for further action, the spokesperson added.
