The woman's face was severely charred, making identification impossible. According to villagers, the body was first noticed in the field, after which an alarm was raised. Nearby farmers and residents gathered at the spot and immediately informed the police. Police reached the scene and made efforts to establish the woman's identity, but were unsuccessful. Based on the circumstances, police suspect that the woman was raped and murdered, and her body was later set on fire to destroy evidence.
