The woman and her lover told the nine-year-old son of the deceased that the gunny bag contained fertilizers, said police. Reena Sahu (36) and her lover Sunil Pradhan (29) of Rukha village allegedly killed Koka Sahu (38) with sharp weapons on March 31 and cut his body into pieces before dumping the parts at Mardharajpur, five km from Chadeyapada on April 1, said Inspector In-Charge of Polasara police station, Tapaswini Kanhar.
Police recovered the body parts from Mardharajpur on April 2 and registered a murder case.
