A Marriage Shrouded in Secrecy

Tanu married into the family in June 2023, but neighbors say they barely saw her. “We never met her, not even once in two years,” says Vidya Jha, a neighbor living next door. “The family was cordial, but the daughter-in-law was never introduced to us. Even during traditional post-wedding rituals, we weren’t invited.”

Other residents echo the same: “We never saw her step outside, never saw her go shopping or even talking to anyone. It’s as if she was invisible.”

The Suspicious Pit

The gruesome discovery began with a pit dug right in front of the family’s building. At first, neighbors thought it was for water drainage or a soak pit. “One day, I saw workers digging a deep hole, about 10-12 feet, and the area was cordoned off with boundaries so no one could see inside,” recalls a local woman. “We asked, but were told it was for water. No one suspected anything.”

The pit remained open for two days, and then, overnight, it was filled and cemented. “A few days later, the family started telling people that Tanu had run away,” another neighbor shares. “But no one had ever seen her leave.”

A Family Apart

Residents describe the family as distant and private. “We’ve lived here for years, but never had any real conversation with them. The men would go to work, but the women, especially Tanu, were never seen outside,” says another neighbor. “Even when we tried to meet her, we were told it wasn’t the right time.”

Tanu’s husband and his parents allegedly told everyone that she had eloped. But the truth, as it turned out, was far more sinister.

The Shocking Discovery

It wasn’t until authorities received a tip-off that they excavated the pit and found Tanu’s body buried beneath layers of cement and earth. The entire neighborhood was stunned. “We walked past that spot every day, never imagining such a horror was right under our feet,” one resident said, visibly shaken.

Unanswered Questions

How could a woman be murdered and buried in such a crowded area without anyone noticing? Why was Tanu kept so isolated from the community? Why did the family go to such lengths to hide her existence—and her death?

These questions haunt the residents of this Faridabad neighborhood, as police continue their investigation into what appears to be a cold-blooded murder driven by deep-seated hatred.

A Community in Shock

The story of Tanu’s tragic end has left the community grappling with guilt and disbelief. “We should have asked more questions. Maybe we could have helped her,” says a neighbor, her voice trembling.

As the case unfolds, Faridabad—and the entire nation—waits for justice for Tanu, the daughter-in-law who vanished in plain sight.
