Bhagalpur: Man cuts woman's breast, hands, ears in Bihar market; had hidden weapon inside a pot

In a shocking incident, a man in Bihar's Bhagalpur district cut the breasts, hands, ears, and nose of a woman at a public market. The man, identified as Mohammad Shakeel, had concealed the weapon inside a pot and he ambushed the woman who went to buy groceries. He first overpowered Neelam Devi and then chopped off parts of her body. The woman later died in a hospital.

The incident took place in the city's Parpainty village. According to unconfirmed reports, the man was close to the woman but committed the crime as she had decided to distance herself from her.

Neelam was taken to Bhagalpur's Jawaharlal Nehru Hospital where she died due to blood loss. 

Neelam's family had threatened Shakeel for coming near to her. He was miffed with the woman as she was not responding to his overtures.

Meanwhile, the woman's husband said he didn't have any enmity with Shakeel, and why he committed the crime wasn't known to him. 

The woman died in the hospital. The police are trying to nab the accused.

After the man fled, people surrounding the woman called the police who came and took the woman to the hospital. She was referred to a higher hospital twice.

Dr. Krishna, who treated the woman, told Dainik Jagran that the woman's both bands and breasts were completely hacked off. Both her hands were also slashed.

There were deep gashes on her back. She died at night while being treated. She said it appeared that the woman died of an attack with a sharp weapon. 

This came days after a Delhi woman's pieces were found. She was allegedly killed by her live-in partner, Aaftab Poonawala. The police are still not able to locate the pieces of her body.
