The probe revealed that the plan emerged from an Instagram reel. The accused claimed that the testicles could be sold for about ₹1.20 crore, police said.
In Madhya Pradesh's Bhopal, a teenage boy was murdered for his testicles, which were allegedly sold for ₹1.20 crore. Police identified the two accused, Aamir Qureshi (18) and Zoheb Khan (20), who allegedly planned the murder. Zoheb, a second-year BBA student, came up with the plan after seeing a reel on Instagram, convincing others that testicles could be sold for a large sum.
The boy was selling pens at Iqbal Maidan when the accused approached him, promising ₹100 to accompany them to an isolated spot. Zoheb remained on the phone throughout the operation, giving directions. When they reached the secluded location, the boy was attacked and his testicles removed. The murder weapon has been recovered, and two adults and three minors have been arrested. The deceased's identity was confirmed through a tattoo on his hand.
