Kolkata, Feb 6 (IBNS): The nearly 32-year-old man, who was booked from Madhya Pradesh for allegedly killing and putting into graves his parents and live-in partner, has been taken to Kolkata on Monday evening for further investigation, officials said.

According to reports, the man- Udayan Das- was flown to Kolkata airport (NSCBI-CCU) from Chhattisgarh's Raipur at around 6:30 pm. and investigators are taking him to Bankura district of West Bengal for more interrogation.

"Our four-vehicle convoy, carrying accused Udayan Das, is currently heading towards Bankura from Kolkata airport and we will reach our destination by 10:30 pm. tonight," a senior official of Bankura district police told IBNS.

"We will produce the man before Bankura Court tomorrow morning and plea for his police custody for further probe," the official added.

Few days earlier, a joint team of Bengal Police and Bhopal Police arrested Udayan Das from his residence at Saketnagar area in Madhya Pradesh for killing and entombing his 28-year-old live-in partner from West Bengal's Bankura district, Akansha Sharma, according to reports.

During interrogation, the man confessed that he killed his father and mother at their residence in Raipur's Netaji Nagar in Chhattisgarh and buried their bodies underneath a lawn inside the premise.


Udayan Das was taken to Raipur on Sunday and police recovered the remains of his parent's bodies, after digging the lawn.

As Udayan Das came to his girlfriend's residence in Bankura last year and stayed there overnight, district police have brought him here to know about the reason behind his visit and his motive behind these three killings, according to police reports.
