The body of a 30-year-old woman, who went missing a month ago from here, was found buried in the backyard of an under construction house in Thiruvananthapuram district, police said.
The woman, Rakhi, who was working in a private company at Kochi, had been missing since June 21, when she left for work.
Police are on the lookout for a man, Akhil V Nair, who was allegedly close to the woman.
The decomposed body was recovered Wednesday from the backyard of the under construction house belonging to Akhil at Amboori, police said.
Besides Akhil, his brother and a friend, Adarsh, are suspects in the case, they said.
Adarsh has been taken into custody in connection with the case, police added.
