The horrific murder of 32-year-old Saraswati Vaidya by his live-in partner Manoj Sane (56) on Mumbai’s Mira Road, who allegedly boiled her body parts and ground them in a mixer, sparked a war of words between Nationalist Congress Party Supriya Sule and Maharashtra BJP women’s wing chief Chitra Wagh, as Sule questioned Maharashtra deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis and his Home department. Saraswati was murdered and her body was dismembered in a frightening resemblance to the Shraddha Walkar murder case. Neighbours who detected a bad odour called Mumbai police.
Reacting to the horrifying details of the murder, NCP leader Supriya Sule said the criminals in the state have no fear of law. Tagging Fadnavis, Sule said, “State Home Minister needs to pay serious attention to his account. Investigating agencies should try to prosecute the accused in this case in fast track court and give him death sentence.”
BJP state women wing president Chitra Kishor Wagh slammed Supriya Sule and said a chameleon would be ashamed to see her changing colours. “Fadnavis is capable enough to take action in the Mira Road case. But you did not feel like speaking out when a minor girl at Manchar in Pune district was kidnapped by a Muslim boy, when the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) was in power, and was not found for two-and-a-half years. Had the MVA government intervened, then Shraddha Walkar would not have been cut into pieces,” she said.
“Just another day in Mumbai MMR for a woman. The unconstitutional government is continuing to shame the state,” Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi tweeted reacting to the video of the cops recovering the woman’s body parts kepts in plastics.
Cut partner’s body with tree cutter, boiled in pressure cooker
Accused Manoj Sane murdered Saraswati Caidya a few days earlier and then dismembered her body with a tree-cutter he bought after killing her. The body parts were then cooked in a pressure cooker before being placed in plastic bags for disposal. The site yielded approximately 12-13 pieces. Manoj Sane and Saraswati have been living together in that flat for the past three years, but neighbours knew little about the reclusive couple.

Chitra Wagh referred to the Shraddha Walkar murder case and said that had the Maha Vikas Aghadi government paid attention to Shraddha Walkar’s complaint against Aftab Poonawalla, she would not have had the same fate. Chitra also cited another incident of a Muslim youth abducting a minor girl in Pune’s Manchar.
Shraddha Walkar was murdered by her live-in partner Aaftab Poonawalla in Delhi last year. After killing her, Aaftab chopped her body parts and disposed them of over a period of time long before the murder was reported. Before shifting to Delhi, Shraddha and Aaftab used to stay in Mumbai and Shraddha had registered a complaint against Aaftab with the Mumbai Police and later withdrew it.
