The landlord of the property at Prestige Colony in Bindayaka, Jaipur, noticed a freshly dug plot and a woman’s hand protruding from the soil when he arrived at 7 a.m. on Sunday—an unsettling sight that immediately raised alarm.
Pravesh, 22, had rented the unit in June and claimed Kiran, 32, as his wife; both hail from Uttar Pradesh, a fact the landlord confirmed after a brief conversation.
Preliminary police assessment indicates Pravesh killed Kiran roughly two to three days before the discovery, dug a pit in the garden at night, buried her body, then locked the door and fled.
Forensic teams exhumed the body and forwarded it to Kanwatia Hospital for post‑mortem; investigators are now canvassing the area and attempting to reach Kiran’s family in Uttar Pradesh.
Police have mobilised additional search squads and will present the case at the next court hearing; the motive behind the killing remains under investigation.
