Hyderabad: A mutilated body of an unidentified man was found in a house in the suburbs of Hyderabad's Chandra Nagar, police said on Thursday.

According to the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Balanagar Zone) Y Sai Shekhar said, the body of the 30-year-old man was cut into pieces with the head placed in a gunny bag and other parts placed along different shelves in the room.

A police team went to the house last night after the house owner informed them about a foul smell coming out of the rented portion of his place.
