Mamta’s Mysterious Disappearance: The Beginning
On July 31, 2024, Mamta, 28 year old nurse, and her husband Naresh Bhatt, 37 year old ex Army man, fought again. That night, Mamta slept in a different room, and Naresh stayed upstairs. The next morning, Naresh woke up to find their one year old daughter sleeping alone in the house, and his wife Mamta nowhere to be found. End.

Naresh had thought that Mamta being the jovial girl who often went to a friend‘s place whenever there was some friction between them, would ultimately return within days. So, he didn‘t bother. But on August 5, he filed a missing person report when Mamta failed to return home after five days.
Investigation Begins: Clues and Questions
The investigation showed that Mamta was last seen on July 27, 2024, after work, getting into a black sedan car. She had canceled her Uber ride, and the identity of the car owner remained unknown. Despite this, Mamta was alive on July 28, as she spoke to a colleague, and on July 29, she video-called her mother in Nepal.
Suspicion arose when Mamta’s phone became inactive on August 1. Preliminary inquiries revealed that Mamta hadn‘t gone to Nepal or visited any of her friends. The police had no leads, but the discovery of CCTV footage in Mamta’s neighborhood changed the course of the investigation.
A Shocking Twist: Forensic Evidence and Suspicion
The police, during the search at Naresh‘s residence with a sniffing dog, were alerted by the dog to the bedroom as it showed traces of a decomposing body. No body was recovered, but the forensic experts found blood traces in the bedroom and bathroom with the help of Blue Star spray technology. This advanced forensic tool traced dried bloodstains not visible to the naked eye.
The investigation indicated that a large pool of blood had been present in the bathroom and bedroom. Based on these findings, Naresh was arrested on suspicion of foul play. However, no physical body or incriminating evidence linked him to Mamta‘s death.
Courtroom Drama: Arguments and Counterarguments
Mamta’s lawyer said Naresh was abusive, and friends and family had confirmed his history of mistreatment. He cited blood traces and other evidence found at the crime scene to support his claims in court. The lawyer noted Naresh bought cleaning supplies on July 31, just after Mamta was reported missing.
CCTV footage showed Naresh disposing of garbage bags and a blood-stained bathroom mat late at night. The defense lawyer argued the blood came from Naresh’s frequent nosebleeds or possibly from household animals. He insisted the evidence was circumstantial and didn’t confirm Mamta’s death beyond reasonable doubt.
On July 30, the prosecution highlighted a suspicious Google search made by Naresh. He had searched for the query, “How many days after my wife dies am I allowed to remarry?” This raised immediate concerns about his intentions. As a result, investigators began to suspect that Mamta may have been murdered. The search query, in particular, sparked further doubts about Naresh’s role in her death. They believed the incident possibly followed a heated argument between the couple regarding divorce. Theories and the Role of Forensic Technology
Police believe that on the intervening night of July 30, an altercation between Naresh and Mamta turned violent, resulting in her death. They suspect that Naresh might have concealed Mamta‘s body under the bed, cleaned up the blood, and disposed of the body in garbage bags. The forensic experts said the blood traces in the bathroom indicated dismembering of the body there.
Though Naresh apparently cleaned up the evidence of the crime with minute detailing, he had underestimated forensic technology, which brought out telling signs of evidence. Detectives are also investigating whether the cellphone of Mamta was thrown into a river, as on August 1, Naresh was seen near the banks of a river.
A Case Still Unsolved
While Mamta’s daughter has been placed in the care of her grandmother in Nepal, Naresh is without bail. With each step taken by the police in investigating this crime, the mystery in Mamta‘s disappearance becomes thicker. This case demonstrates that forensic technology has been important in unearthing secreted truths and meting out justice.
