Wednesday, 25 May 2022 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

The body of a 29-year-old Haryanvi singer, who was missing since May 11, was found buried by roadside in Haryana’s Meham area. Police have arrested two people in connection with the murder.
The singer identified as Sangeeta, alias Divya, had gone missing since May 11 and her parents had reported it on May 14. Police said that both the accused, identified as Ravi and Anil, residents of Meham, are in their late 20s and used to be friends with the woman. She had filed a rape case against Ravi earlier.
Police said that the duo work in a finance company in Haryana. According to Shankar Choudhary, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), Dwarka district, a First Information Report (FIR) was initially registered under Section 365 (kidnapping or abducting with intent to secretly and wrongfully confine a person) at the JP Kalan Police Station here. The police launched an investigation and Ravi and Anil, were arrested in Meham on Saturday. During interrogation they disclosed that they had hatched a conspiracy to kill the singer and had called her on the pretext of making a music video.
“One of them picked her up from Delhi, drugged her and then killed her. Later, they buried the body in the Meham Police Station area. The body was subsequently found on Sunday, and murder Sections were added to case,” said the DCP. The police said woman's body was handed over to her family after a post-mortem examination. 
However, her relatives, along with some local leaders of the Bhim Army and other parties, brought body to JP Kalan Police Station and staged a protest alleging that victim was gangraped. However, the police said there was no evidence of rape so far.
