A fatal incident rocked Navi Mumbai as a 20-year-old woman from Uran was savagely murdered by an acquaintance, identified as Dawood Shaikh. The attack is believed to stem from her refusal to accompany him to Bengaluru and insistence on deleting her photos in his possession.

The Navi Mumbai police confirmed Shaikh's arrest from Gulbarga in Karnataka. The arrest followed days after the woman's body was discovered with severe injuries. A local court has remanded Shaikh to police custody for seven days, with additional charges under the SC/ST Atrocities Act.
