A Virginia man has been convicted of murdering his wife, more than two years after she initially went missing. The verdict comes after 28-year-old Naresh Bhatt admitted to dismembering her body while maintaining that he did not cause her death.
During the proceedings, Bhatt asserted that his wife took her own life and that he only dismembered her remains after she had died. He continued to deny committing the murder despite conceding to the dismemberment of her body.
Prosecutors firmly rejected Bhatt's defense, describing the claim that his wife took her own life as ridiculous. The conviction officially holds him responsible for her murder following the prolonged disappearance that began over two years ago.
