UP Wife and Alleged Lover Arrested in Sambhal Dismemberment Case as Search Continues

A tattoo on the torso linked the remains to Rahul, prompting arrests as police pursue DNA tests and the recovery of missing parts.

Overview

  • Ruby and her alleged lover Gaurav were arrested on December 20 in Chandausi and sent to jail, with an FIR registered under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
  • Police say Rahul was killed in mid-November after he caught the pair together, with an iron rod and pestle allegedly used before the body was cut using a grinder.
  • A tattoo reading “Rahul” on the torso and matching clothing seen in photos on Ruby’s phone helped investigators identify the victim and build the case.
  • Forensic teams recovered a grinder and other items from the home and preserved DNA to be matched with the couple’s children for confirmation.
  • Officers say the torso was dumped in a drain near Patraua Road Idgah and the head and limbs were thrown into the Ganga at Rajghat, as searches and inquiries into any other involvement continue.
