‘The catechist, on discovering that the lady had lost her life, early Saturday, while both of them tried to terminate a pregnancy, using local herbs, hid the corpse in his room till nightfall.

He had planned to dispose of the corpse in a neighbouring village and probably flee. Unfortunately for him, he was caught while trying to transport the corpse using a commercial motorcycle.

He was apprehended and handed over to  community leaders but, strangely, he escaped before being taken to the police station.

However, the corpse of the woman, who was suspected to have come from a neighbouring village, was handed over to the Police, who are now searching for the fleeing catechist’ said a resident of the town.
