New Delhi: Startling revelations have surfaced in the murder case of Bangladeshi MP Anwarul Azim Anar. According to reports, Anar was brutally skinned and dismembered in a Kolkata apartment, with his body parts disposed of in plastic bags across the city.

Gruesome murder and disposal

The West Bengal CID (Criminal Investigation Department) found bloodstains and multiple plastic bags in the New Town flat, indicating the grisly nature of the crime. Anar, who had been missing since May 12, was last seen on CCTV footage with a friend in the apartment just hours before his murder.

Murder for hire

Initial investigations revealed that one of Anar's friends had paid around Rs 5 crore to have him killed. Jihad Hawladar, an illegal Bangladeshi immigrant living in Mumbai, has been arrested and admitted to his involvement in the murder. Reports indicate that Hawladar, along with four other Bangladeshi nationals, suffocated Anar to death on orders from Akhtaruzzaman, a US citizen of Bangladeshi origin.

Methodical execution

Hawladar revealed chilling details of the murder's planning and execution. After suffocating Anar, the killers skinned the body, removed the flesh, and minced it to prevent identification. The bones were then broken into small pieces, and the remains were packed into plastic bags. These parcels were distributed and disposed of throughout Kolkata.

Official confirmation and arrests

Bangladesh Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan confirmed Anar's death on Wednesday, announcing that three suspects had been taken into custody. The CID's discovery of bloodstains and disposal bags in the New Town apartment further corroborates the details of this gruesome crime.

Circumstantial evidence

Police reports suggest that the MP was first strangled before his body was mutilated. The circumstantial evidence collected from the crime scene supports this narrative, pointing to a meticulously planned and executed murder.

Call for justice

As investigations continue, the involvement of multiple suspects and the elaborate nature of the crime have shocked both the Indian and Bangladeshi communities. The authorities are determined to bring all perpetrators to justice and uncover the full extent of this horrifying crime.
