The accused in the murder of 16-year-old Rehan were transferred to judicial custody on Saturday following the expiration of their police remand. During the interrogations and searches, law enforcement recovered the clothing, cap, and other materials believed to have been used by the suspects during the crime. ACP Santosh Patel reported that the police also confirmed the store from which the accused had allegedly purchased the knife utilized in the murder and the blade employed to cut the victim's testicles.
Furthermore, the police verified the scrap dealer to whom accused Zoheb allegedly sold his Alto car for Rs 23,000 after the crime. The vehicle is claimed to have been dismantled at Kabadkhana.
The investigation uncovered four CCTV footages displaying the accused taking the victim with them on the day of the incident. It was revealed that the accused allegedly kept the body parts in the car for two days before storing them in a freezer, with the intention of selling them for Rs 1.20 crore. Police are currently investigating their contact with an Iranian woman and a man.
ACP Santosh Patel honored Rehan's final wish for his mother by ensuring she received dentures, as she had difficulty eating. Rehan had reportedly requested this, and Dr Ateeq Khan and his team agreed to examine his mother. Her dental measurements have been taken, and the dentures will be fitted soon, according to Patel. Additionally, a Bhopal Municipal Corporation Assistant Accountant has been suspended due to irregularities involving the POS machine.
