A 45-year-old man missing for five days was found murdered in Faridabad after stray dogs dug up his body from a field on Monday, police said. Heavy rain had loosened the soil, exposing the remains. The victim's wife has been detained for questioning, and her alleged lover is on the run, according to officials.

The victim's brother alerted police after spotting a human hand in a pit while searching nearby fields. An FIR has been registered under sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including murder and criminal conspiracy. Police said the woman had not filed a complaint about her husband's disappearance.
Raids are underway to arrest the alleged lover. The autopsy report will confirm the cause of death, an officer said.
This case mirrors several recent murder-for-love plots in the NCR where extramarital affairs led to violent deaths. The use of stray dogs to expose a buried body is rare but not unprecedented in rural areas where shallow graves are common. The key evidence will be forensic matching of soil samples and the autopsy determining whether death preceded burial. The court will now decide on the wife's judicial custody when she is produced.
