After the body of a 16-year-old, Puja Vilas Jadhav, was found at a vacant plot in Pashan yesterday afternoon, officials of the Chatuhshrungi police station remained confused about the case as the autopsy report also failed to ascertain the exact cause of death.

We are considering all possible angles while investigating the case,” Police Inspector Subhash Nikam of Chatuhshrungi police station said.u00a0
