Mangaluru, May 18: A week after Shreemathi Shetty was brutally murdered, the police on Saturday May 18 took the accused to the various spots in the city where the victim's body parts were found.
The murder of Shreemathi Shetty that shocked the city came to light on May 12, with her body parts being found in a gunny bag near Kadri Park and near Nandigudde graveyard. Her head was found in a helmet and her feet were recovered a couple of days later from another spot at Kadri. Her scooter was located at Nagori with blood stains on the wheel.
The police who formed three times to investigate the murder arrested Jonas Samson and his wife Victoria. The motive for the murder turned out to be a financial dispute.
Samson had been admitted in hospital. After his discharge on Saturday May 18, the police took him to the various spots where the body parts of the victim were found, for the purpose of identification and further probe.
Samson showed the police the spot at Nandigudde where he dumped a part of Shreemathi's body, and then led them to a spot near Padua park where he had dumped her feet. Thereafter, they went to Kadri Park near where Shreemathi's head was found, and then to Nagori where he had left her scooter that he had used to commit the horrific crime.
After Nagori, the accused led the police to Pumpwell, where he went after committing the murder. Lastly, he took them to his rented house at Sootarpete where he murdered Shreemathi before chopping her to pieces.
Police sources said that all through the crime spot inspection, Samson showed no remorse while recalling the murder.
