According to reports, to enable him to dispose of her body easily, Guru Murthy , a former soldier, chopped her body in the bathroom and boiled the parts in a pressure cooker.
Then he took the bones out, and ground them using a pestle and boiled them again. After multiple rounds of cooking flesh and bones for three days, the man allegedly dumped the parts of her body in Meerpet Lake.
Guru Murthy is currently employed as a security guard with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). The couple have two children, a boy and a girl.
It is still unclear why he murdered his wife. The couple reportedly fought a lot. The police are investigating the claims made by Guru Murthy.
