  "account": "On the fateful day, Anil Khade, 45, and his friend Vishnu Kumbhar, 43, went out for a drink together. Their evening took a dark turn, resulting in a brutal altercation. Following the dispute, authorities believe Kumbhar allegedly murdered Khade, then dismembered his body with a sharp object.\n\nKumbhar allegedly tossed Khade's legs into a gunny bag and placed it in a garbage bin. Police discovered the remains in the Pimple Gurav area on the following day, after finding a SIM card belonging to Kumbhar in the bag. This led investigators to Khade's family, who confirmed his identity. Further examination revealed that the last recorded contact between the two men was with Kumbhar.\n\nOn Saturday, police arrested Kumbhar and charged him with murder. The victim was positively identified through the recovered body parts and the SIM card. The investigation is ongoing to uncover more details about the incident.",
