In a 'Drishyam' style murder, wife hides husband's body under floor tiles in Mumbai

In a chilling murder case, reminiscent of scenes from the Bollywood film 'Drishyam', a woman in Maharashtra's Palghar district murdered her husband with the help of her lover and buried his body inside their home.

According to the reports, the husband, 35-year-old Vijay Chavan, had been missing for the last 15 days.

He lived with his 28-year-old wife, Komal Chavan, in the Gadgapada area of Nalasopara East, about 70 kilometres from Mumbai.

On Monday morning, Vijay's brothers, who had been searching for him, visited his house. On reaching there, they realised some floor tiles did not match the colour of the rest.

Growing suspicious, they removed the differently-coloured tiles and found a vest buried underneath and a foul odour. They immediately informed the police.

Cops then found their brother's body buried under the tiles.

The cops suspect that Komal murdered Vijay Chavan, who has also been missing for two days, along with a neighbour, Monu.

The two are allegedly in a romantic relationship and are now prime suspects in the case.
