Late night on Monday, a half burnt unidentified dead body found near Shiva Temple in Majarati, Nagaon, that sparked panic among the locals.
Police suspected it is a murder, as the victim was murdered by unknown assailants before the body was set fire in an attempt to destroy evidence. A bottle of Kerosene found near the body.
Locals discovered the body after noticing burned smell and spotted the charred remains near the temple premises. They immediately called police.

Nagaon police immediately arrived at the spot and have since corned the area for investigation. “The condition of the body and the presence of kerosene strongly suggest premeditated murder,” a police official at the site said. “We are working to identify the victim and are checking for any missing person reports.”
Further investigation is going on.
