A disturbing incident took place in Udaipur on Friday, March 29, 2024, as a dead body was discovered within a closed shop, sparking immediate concerns about a potential crime. The discovery took place at a shop situated in the middle of Udaipur’s bustling Ashwini Market.

In response, the police swiftly reached the scene to assess the situation. The lifeless body was carefully transported to the MB Hospital Mortuary for further examination and investigation.
