Mumbai: Minor Nephew Allegedly Kills Uncle Over Relationship With Aunt At Under
Khar police have arrested a 17-year-old boy for the alleged murder of his 35-year-old uncle at an under-construction site in Mumbai's Khar West. The victim's body was found concealed under cement bags, and the nephew, who initially posed as a complainant, was later taken into custody.
Mumbai's Khar police have solved a murder case involving a 35-year-old construction worker whose body was discovered hidden under cement bags at an under-construction site in Khar West. The incident occurred at the AOS Genesis site on Road No. 7, opposite SBI Bank.
According to police reports, the murder is believed to have taken place between 9:30 am and 2 pm on August 17. The following day, at approximately 12:30 pm, the Western Control Room informed Khar police that a man had been found unconscious under cement bags at the site. A police team arriving at the scene found the man dead.
The deceased was identified as Ravishankar Nandkishor Giri, a construction worker from Samastipur, Bihar. A case was registered under Sections 103(1) and 238 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023.
Investigation and Arrest
During the investigation, police examined the crime scene, technical evidence, and statements from other construction workers. The victim's nephew, Vishalkumar Ramlakhan Giri, 17 years and eight months old, initially presented himself as a complainant. However, investigators noted inconsistencies in his statements, body language, and account of events.
Police questioned the minor using scientific and technical methods, and after correlating evidence, they concluded he was allegedly involved in the murder. A preliminary investigation suggested the murder followed a dispute over an alleged relationship between the minor and his aunt. The teen has been taken into custody.
The investigation was conducted under the supervision of Senior Police Inspector Santosh Kate, with Police Inspector Rahul Deshmukh and Police Inspector Prakash More involved.

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
