The woman, in her early 20s, came to Delhi after she got married to a BPO employee in 2005. An election commission card recovered from the first-floor of the Uttam Nagar house where the body was found led to the girl's identification, said police. Delhi Police has released a picture of the prime accused, Innocent Nwayo, who had been allegedly living under an assumed name as Mac.
"We found the election commission card of a woman in the room and contacted her. She identified the body as that of Chong, who had been living with friends in south Delhi on and off after she was estranged from her husband in 2010," said additional commissioner of police (west) V Renganathan.
According to police, Chong's relationship with her husband broke down in 2010 since he reportedly did not approve of her personal habits. Around two-three months back, she had reportedly introduced Innocent Nwayo as her boyfriend to her friends. She had been frequently staying with him, said cops. "She was currently not employed and has no family in Delhi or back in Manipur. We have sent the body for postmortem and are investigating the case," said a senior police officer.
The girl's body had been found stuffed inside a bag on Friday afternoon around 4pm on the first floor of a building in Uttam Nagar. The tenant of the house, Nwayo, had been missing along with the third floor tenant, Michael, said cops. The landlord was able to provide police with the passport photocopies of both of them. A team has been sent to Mumbai to hunt for Nwayo as police suspect he has left the city.
