Bhopal Road Blocked Over Alleged Murder of 75-Year-Old, Gold Teeth Allegedly Removed

Family members and local residents blocked a road in Bhopal for around 45 minutes, demanding the immediate arrest of those accused of murdering 75-year-old Kalri Devi. The protest took place on the road from Kohefiza towards the Collectorate after the elderly woman was allegedly killed in broad daylight and her gold teeth were taken out.

The roadblock led to a queue of vehicles stretching for around 200 metres. Police officers reached the spot and assured the protesters that the accused would be arrested soon. The demonstration ended after the assurance, and traffic was restored.

The incident has caused anger in the area because the accused have not yet been arrested. Family members and residents said the police must identify and arrest those responsible for the murder without delay.

Gold teeth allegedly taken out after murder

Kalri Devi lived in Block B-2 of Vajpayee Nagar Multi, under the Shahjahanabad police station area. The family has alleged that the attackers murdered the elderly woman and then pulled out the gold teeth from her mouth.

The alleged removal of the gold teeth has added to the anger over the killing. The incident has left Kalri Devi’s family and people living in the area frightened and angry.

During the protest, people expressed their displeasure with the police administration. They said that the failure to arrest the accused in the murder of an elderly woman was a serious concern. The protesters demanded that the police establish the identity of the accused and take them into custody at the earliest.

Post-mortem report says death was due to suffocation

Police have received Kalri Devi’s short post-mortem report. The report confirms that she died of suffocation. According to the preliminary information, her neck was strangled with a rope-like object.

Police are investigating the reason behind the murder and trying to find out who was involved in the incident. Family members have expressed suspicion about a young man living in the area. They said the young man has not been seen since the incident.

However, the police have not yet confirmed this suspicion. The allegation remains part of the information provided by the family as the investigation continues.

Kalri Devi’s murder case came to light on Friday morning. The 75-year-old woman was the wife of late Haricharan and lived alone in Block B-2 of Vajpayee Nagar Multi.

Her four daughters are married. Her son is mute and deaf and works in a government office located in Shyamla Hills.

The initial investigation had raised the possibility that she was murdered with the intention of robbery. After information emerged that her gold teeth had allegedly been pulled out, police are also examining the robbery angle seriously.

Residents raise questions over security

The family members and local residents who took part in the roadblock also questioned the law and order situation in the area. Protesters said that two murder incidents had already taken place in the locality. Despite this, they said, the security arrangements had not improved as expected.

The residents demanded increased police patrolling in the area. They also called for closer monitoring of suspicious activities and strict action against criminals.

The protesters said the murder had raised concerns about the safety of elderly people living alone. Their anger increased because the accused had not been arrested even after the killing.

Police officers reach the spot

After receiving information about the roadblock, ACP Anil Bajpai reached the spot along with Kohefiza police station in-charge Lokendra Singh Thakur and Shahjahanabad police station in-charge UPS Chauhan. Police personnel from the two police stations also arrived at the location.

The officers spoke to the protesting family members and local residents. They tried to persuade the protesters to end the blockade and assured them that action would be taken soon.

After the discussions and the assurance of early action, the protesters ended the demonstration. The road was cleared and traffic movement resumed.

Police are now examining CCTV footage from cameras installed in and around the area. Investigators are checking the movements of suspects and looking into the robbery angle as well.

Police have said that efforts are being made to identify and arrest the accused. The family and local residents are now waiting for police action and the arrest of those responsible for Kalri Devi’s murder.

The incident has also raised a larger question among the protesting residents: if an elderly woman is not safe inside her own home in the capital, who will take responsibility for the safety of ordinary citizens?
