Kathmandu — A body found wrapped in a cloth near New Bus Park in Tokha-9 on Saturday has been confirmed to be that of a woman, according to an initial medical examination by Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital. Investigators had first suspected the victim to be a third-gender individual, but the postmortem report is still awaited.
Police have arrested one suspect in connection with the murder. The accused, Surya Magar of Udaypur, worked as a cook at a hotel near the bus park. Preliminary police findings indicate that he strangled the woman after a dispute over a loan of five hundred rupees he had given her.
