In a dramatic twist to what was believed to be a murder case, a woman who was reported missing and suspected to have been killed by her husband has now been found alive and living with a male friend.
Police had earlier discovered a female skeleton and, based on circumstantial evidence, arrested the woman’s husband on charges of murder. The case seemed all but closed — until the woman was recently traced, alive and well.
Her confession not only proves her husband’s innocence, but also throws the investigation into turmoil. Now, serious questions are being raised about the identity of the skeleton the police had confidently declared was hers.
The shocking revelation has sparked concerns over the handling of the investigation, and a fresh probe is expected to be launched to determine who the real victim is — and how such a major error occurred.
