45-year-old man found dead on railway track in Chhatarpur; wife alleges murder

The Story in Brief

The mutilated body of a 45-year-old man was found on a railway track in Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh, in the Civil Line police station area on Wednesday. The deceased was identified as Rakesh Khare, a resident of Awas Colony D-37 on Goriya Road. Police registered a case of unnatural death, sent the body for post-mortem and launched an investigation.

Khare’s wife, Mamta, has alleged murder and said her husband had received threats after a dispute with neighbours over a religious programme at a temple a day earlier. She named Swadesh Vishwakarma and Jagdish Vishwakarma, saying they came to the house and made a disturbance; she reported the incident to Dial-112 and said she has videos saved on her phone. She went to the police the next day about the dispute and her husband’s health, then received a call to go to the district hospital where she was told he had been hit by a train. The police say the exact cause of death will be clear after investigation, evidence collection and the post-mortem report.

The Indian Opinion

The report contains serious allegations from the victim’s wife alongside official statements that the matter is under investigation. The word “mutilated” and the wife’s claim of a planned killing are strong, potentially sensational elements; they warrant careful scrutiny and clear evidence. At the same time, police statements that the cause of death will be determined after forensic examination remind readers that conclusions should await the post-mortem and investigative findings. An ordinary reader would reasonably expect transparency about collected forensic evidence, the contents of the wife’s video material, and prompt, unbiased police work to establish whether the death resulted from an accident, foul play, or other causes.
