Speaking about the incident, Muzaffarpur SP Vikram Sihag said, “The dead body of a businessman from Guwahati was found submerged in water from Rajwada in Mushari police station area. When the police talked to his son, he said he was suffering from depression due to the loss of money. Prima facie, the case appears to be a suicide. However, the police team is investigating the entire matter.”

String of similar recoveries

Meanwhile, four other corpses were recovered on the same day causing a stir across Muzaffarpur. The bodies were sent for autopsy to the Sri Krishna Medical College and Hospital (SKMCH) to establish the cause of death.

Police said that a blood-soaked body of a youth was found on the roadside Dighra under Sadar police station area in the early hours of the day.

The local police recovered the body and sent it for post mortem. According to eyewitnesses, the body was dumped there after being killed somewhere else. The victim remains unidentified.

The fourth body was recovered below the Tirhut embankment in Devsar Asli ward number 12 of Vasudevpur Sarai Panchayat under Sahebganj police station and was sent for autopsy. The victim’s identity is yet to be established.

The corpse of another middle-aged man, the fifth victim, was found lying on the roadside near Singhon Mishraulia village in the Sakra Police Station area.
