What began as a search for a missing fisherman ended with the discovery of a murder after his body was found buried in the sand on a beach near Arambhada village in Jamnagar. Police have detained three men, including the victim’s former son-in-law, in connection with the case.
Search For Fisherman Ends In Tragedy
Govind Makwana, 55, left home on the night of July 12 to go fishing along the coast, as he did regularly. When he did not return, his brothers began searching for him and found his motorcycle abandoned near bushes by the seashore.
Suspecting foul play due to earlier threats allegedly made by Govind’s former son-in-law, Jay Parmar, the family approached Mithapur police.
Family Dispute Behind Murder
According to the FIR filed by Govind’s brother Arvind, Govind’s daughter, Sangita, divorced the main accused, Jay Parmar, around two months ago.
The complaint states that Jay regularly consumed alcohol, suspected his wife’s character and physically assaulted her, which led to the divorce. Police said Jay allegedly held a grudge over the separation and, along with Rama Vaghela and Ramesh Parmar, planned to kill his former father-in-law.
Body Buried On Beach
Police said the three accused allegedly waited for Govind while he was fishing along the coast. They allegedly assaulted him with an iron ring worn on the hand before strangling him with a rope.
After the murder, the accused allegedly buried Govind’s body in the beach sand to hide the crime.
Accused Lead Police To Burial Site
Mithapur police detained the three suspects for questioning. During interrogation, police said the accused confessed to the murder and led investigators to the spot where Govind’s body had been buried.
The three accused remain in police custody as further investigation into the case continues.
