Prosecutor Vineet Kulkarni informed the

The duo strangled Kusma with a nylon rope, stuffed the body in the gunny bag and disposed it off. The body was found on September 29, 2014.

During investigation, police found incriminating articles in the

’ rooms and later also learnt about the Rs 15,000 loan. “The pieces of cotton and plastic rope found in the gunny bag and in the duo’s rooms are of the same hue, design and physical parameter. The chemical analysis report of the same corroborates the prosecution’s story connecting the accused with the murder,” observed the judge and convicted them.
