The woman’s dead body was discovered in a well which falls under the jurisdiction of Bassi police station area of Jaipur district on Monday, they said, further adding that one of the suspects has been taken into police custody.

As maintained by the police, the woman had left Jaipur on a bus to visit her parents’ house in Dausa on Sunday morning.
