Balasore: The half-burnt body of a woman was recovered from the terrace of her in-laws’ house in mysterious conditions at a village in Odisha’s Balasore district on Saturday.
The incident reportedly took place at Jainagar village under Bhograi block of the district. The deceased has been identified as Mili Parida, daughter-in-law of Hemant Parida.
While the woman’s in-laws claimed that she committed suicide by setting herself on fire on the terrace of their house, the family members of the deceased alleged that she was murdered for dowry.
