Pulwama – November 13, 2026: Demonstrating exemplary investigative promptness and forensic acumen, Pulwama district police has cracked the horrific homicide of a 70-year-old woman inside her residential home in Parigam village, arresting the prime accused within 48 hours of the incident.
The elderly victim was discovered lying in a pool of blood with fatal throat lacerations inside her isolated house on Wednesday morning, sending shockwaves across the agrarian village. District police immediately constituted a special investigation team headed by the local sub-divisional police officer alongside forensic fingerprint units and canine squads.
Through thorough technical surveillance, call data pattern analysis, and discreet village questioning, sleuths zeroed in on a local suspect whose movements near the crime scene appeared inconsistent during interrogation. Under sustained questioning, the accused broke down and confessed to the premeditated crime, admitting he targeted the lone elderly woman for robbery.
Police have successfully recovered the sharp-edged weapon utilized in the homicide alongside the entirety of the stolen gold jewelry and cash stashed in an abandoned cowshed. The accused has been remanded to police custody as charges under Section 103 (murder) and robbery are processed before the judicial magistrate.
