Deputy Commissioner of Police Bidisha Kalita stated that the victim had been avoiding Laskar and had blocked his phone number, which infuriated him. On Thursday evening, after the victim finished work, Laskar coerced her into accompanying him to an under-construction building. There, he carried out the gruesome crime, disposing of her head near a garbage vat and the other body parts near a pond.
The severed head, bearing injury marks and bloodstains, was discovered on Friday morning. Alarmed locals alerted the police, who deployed sniffer dogs and began reviewing CCTV footage from the area. Initial forensic examinations indicated the crime had occurred within 12 hours of the head's discovery.
On Saturday, further searches led to the recovery of the torso and lower body near a pond. Police recovered critical evidence, including samples from the garbage vat on Graham Road, which helped them piece together the sequence of events.
Laskar's movements were traced through CCTV footage and other leads, culminating in his arrest at his native village in Basuldanga, Diamond Harbour, in South 24 Parganas district. During interrogation, he confessed to the crime, revealing his motive was the victim's repeated rejection of his advances.
