After killing the wife, the two disposed of Vidya’s body at an isolated area near Tirunelveli in Tamil Nadu so that it would become difficult for her family to find her.

During interrogation, the husband tried to mislead the police by filing a missing complaint at the police station. Not just that, the man also threw the woman's mobile phone in the dustbin of a long-distance train to Bihar, because, when the police tried to look for her whereabouts, the mobile phone showed a tower in Bihar.

“Both Premkumar and Sunitha stayed together in Tirunelveli for two months (after the murder). Once the interrogation started, they confessed to have committed the crime. The local police in Tirunelveli also found an unidentified corpse of a woman on September 22, the same day that Premkumar had filed a missing complaint with the police,” ACP R Viswanath told media.

Police also stated that Premkumar later admitted that he got this idea about the murder from the Malayalam movie 'Drishyam'.
