Gongabu murder case:  Krishna Bohara was killed with hammer: Police



KATHMANDU: Police have arrested and brought Kalpana Shahi, the murder-accused of Krishna Bahadur Bohara in Gongabu, to Kathmandu from Chitwan on early Tuesday.

During the police investigation, Kalpana has admitted to have killed Bohara by striking him with a hammer after administering him sedatives on Saturday night.

“I murdered him after he troubled me a lot,” Police quoted Kalpana as saying.

It is learnt that the body was taken to the bathroom and the head and his legs were severed. They were put in the suitcase and a zebra bag and disposed on the road side, said police. She claimed that she did not call for help from anyone to kill Bohara.

Kalpana’s 16-year-old daughter had assisted her for the management of body.

Kalpana had headed to Chitwan in an ambulance on Sunday evening.

Metropolitan Police Crime Division, Kathmandu is organizing a press meet to make public the details of the incident on Tuesday.
