The accused, identified as Mahipal Bhagaura, arrived in a car, stepped out and stabbed her in the stomach with the sword.The victim, Leela Tabiyar, collapsed on the spot as shocked bystanders watched the assault unfold. Mahipal attempted to flee in the same car but crashed the vehicle into a tree near the bus stand shortly after. He then abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot. Locals alerted the police and rushed Leela to the district hospital, where doctors declared her dead on arrival. Police teams from Baghidora and Kalinjara stations reached the scene after receiving the alert.Leela, a resident of Arthuna, was posted as a Grade-II Sanskrit teacher at Govt Senior Secondary School in Chhaya Mahudi, Sajjangarh block.A police officer said that she was divorced and once shared a close relationship with the accused.
