Body of woman stuffed inside suitcase found near railway track on outskirts of Bengaluru
Bengaluru, May 21 (PTI): The body of an unidentified woman was found stuffed inside a suitcase near the railway tracks in Chandapura, located in Anekal on the outskirts of Bengaluru on Wednesday, police said.
No apparent injury marks were visible on the body, they said.
Citing a preliminary investigation, a senior police officer said that the woman, whose age is estimated to be at least 18 or above and her identity is yet to be established. She may have been murdered elsewhere. It appears that after killing, the accused stuffed the body inside the suitcase with the intention of disposing it of in an isolated place.
According to the initial inquiry, it appears that the suitcase with the stuffed body was allegedly thrown from a moving train, he said.
The abandoned suitcase was spotted by a passerby who alerted the police.
"Since no apparent injuries were visible on the body, we suspect that she would have been either strangled or smothered. However, only after postmortem, we would be able to ascertain the exact cause of her death," he added.
CK Baba, Bengaluru Rural Superintendent of Police, said, "We have begun our investigation and have registered a case of murder at Suryanagar police station. It appears that the suitcase was thrown most likely from a running train. The suitcase contained only the body-- no ID or personal belongings were found. We will continue investigating the case thoroughly."

Bose questioned the expenditure in the post X, “when Everyone knows RSS is Not Registered & Does not Pay any Tax is it justified to spend Tax Payers Money on such Private event??”
Reacting to the development, Karnataka’s IT-BT and Panchayat Raj Minister Priyank Kharge also criticised the spending.
In a post on X, he asked why public money was being used for what he described as a “private ideological project.”
"Modi Sarkar spent Rs 76,13,129 of public money on newspaper advertisements to celebrate 100 years of the RSS. Why is Government spending taxpayers money on an unregistered, non-tax-paying organisation to celebrate their centenary?," he added.

According to reports, the RSS describes itself as a volunteer-based organisation and has stated that it functions as a body of individuals rather than a registered entity.
Founded by Keshav Baliram Hedgewar in 1925, the organisation is marking its centenary year beginning from Vijaydashami in 2025, with the milestone observed on October 2.
