The accused had killed his wife and her sister with a sharp weapon and had burnt their faces with diesel before dumping the bodies in separate locations.
Hakimuddin, another witness in the case, has stated that the assailants are powerful and they had even barred the Muslims supporters of the Dalit family from praying in the local mosque during Ramzan.
Shivani's phone was allegedly being used by the murderer. While she was killed on the night of June 26, a video was posted from her account on June 28, a few hours before her body was found.
The police stated that hundreds of people gathered near the cremation ground violating the lockdown and protesting against the cremation of woman who was a coronavirus suspect.
