Hyderabad: In the film industry, if you have some supportive people, then opportunities come quickly and the career also progresses. Those people who help in the early days of careers are never forgotten. But one actress turned out to be completely the opposite. She killed her friend who helped her in building her career in a beautiful manner, and that too in collusion with her lover. The body of the deceased was cut into more than 300 pieces and burnt. You must know who that actress is. Yes, this story is from 2008, when the act of Maria Susairaj, accused in the Neeraj Grover murder case, shook the entire film industry.

Neeraj Grover's help and Maria's ingratitude

Kannada industry actress Maria Susairaj helped Neeraj Grover, who was a television executive and was trying to get opportunities in films and serials. Neeraj got her opportunities in serials and sometimes even paid for her auditions. Neeraj helped Maria when she was moving into her apartment. But strange events occurred after that. Neeraj suddenly disappeared one day. Efforts were made to find him for hours and days after that. Neeraj's parents filed a complaint with the police, and Maria was questioned.

The truth behind the murder

was revealed during the investigation. Maria Susseraj was in a relationship with her boyfriend Lieutenant Jerome Mathew. The two were engaged, but Mathew could not tolerate the fact that Neeraj was helping Maria. Maria had said many times that Neeraj was the only person who liked her, but Neeraj had no feelings for her. One day, when Maria was shifting her flat, Neeraj came to help her. During this time, Mathew came to Maria's house, but when he rang the bell and the door was not opened, he got angry and broke in to break the door.

Murder in anger

Mathew pushed Maria aside and entered and saw Neeraj lying on the bed. He became even more angry and ignoring Maria, brought a knife from the kitchen and stabbed Neeraj multiple times. Neeraj died. After the murder, Maria started cleaning the room as it was soaked in blood. She gradually cleaned the blood and changed the bedsheets and pillows. Maria and Mathew later had sex while Neeraj's body was kept separately.

After this, both of them went to a shopping mall and bought knives, plastic bags and petrol. They cut Neeraj's body into more than 300 pieces and took it to a deserted place and burnt it. Initially, Maria tried to mislead the police by saying that Neeraj had left her flat on the night of May 6. But gradually she confessed her crime and said that she had killed Neeraj along with her lover.

Story of police investigation and evidence

When Neeraj's body was being cremated, Neeraj's phone was still with him. A call came on the phone, which Maria picked up, and this provided strong evidence for the police. What was even more shocking was that Maria and Mathew's families were more concerned about not being able to destroy the evidence, rather than the fact that they had murdered Neeraj.

Punishment and Justice

Maria was sentenced to three years in prison and Mathew to ten years. This case will be remembered as a dark chapter in the film industry, where an actress brutally killed a man who was helping her partner
