Pune: The Pimpri Chinchwad police have formed a special investigation team ( SIT ) to trace the body of a 25-year-old woman and her two missing sons (two and five years), thrown into the Indrayani river at Indori near Talegaon by her partner — a logistics firm vendor. Pimpri Chinchwad commissioner of police (CP) Vinoy Kumar Choubey constituted the SIT, headed by assistant commissioner of police (Dehu Road division) Devidas Gheware. “Our focus right now is to trace the victim’s body and her two missing sons,” Gheware told TOI.
He said rescue teams from the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), Bombay Sappers, Vanyajeev Rakshak Maval carried out searches in the swollen waters of the Indrayani river. “But the woman’s body was not traced. Her two sons are also missing,” he said.
The woman, separated from her husband, was in a relationship with the logistics vendor. He referred her to a private hospital at Kalamboli in Navi Mumbai for termination of pregnancy. A woman aide of the vendor and his friend facilitated the vendor’s contact with the hospital’s doctor to conduct the procedure.
The vendor’s friend had taken the woman to the hospital with her two sons. She died at the hospital on the night of July 8, and the friend brought the body and the two kids back to the vendor in Talegaon. Fearing trouble, the vendor and his friend in the early hours of July 9 threw the woman’s body and the two crying kids into the river in spate because of heavy rain.
