According to information available, around 3 am on Monday, Kanhan police received information about a woman’s body floating in the river. A police team immediately rushed to the spot and retrieved the body from the water.

Police officials said the exact cause of death is yet to be ascertained. Investigators are exploring the possibility that she may have been killed elsewhere and her body was later dumped into the Kanhan River. However, a clear picture will emerge only after the post-mortem report and further investigation.
Police examining past disputes
As part of the probe, police are collecting details about Aashi De’s past disputes, personal relationships, financial dealings and recent movements. It has also come to light that her brother was murdered a few years ago and she had reportedly been making efforts to seek justice in that case.
Sources said police are also examining whether the case has any connection with an alleged drug network or other criminal activities. However, no official confirmation has been given by the police regarding any such link.
Investigators are trying to find answers to several key questions, how did Aashi De reach the Kanhan River? Was she killed at the spot or elsewhere? Who dumped her body into the river and when? Was the motive related to personal rivalry, financial disputes or organised crime?
Kanhan police have currently registered a case of accidental death and stated that further legal action will be initiated based on the post-mortem report and findings of the investigation.
