The Bardoli police took her live-in partner Chirag into custody and during investigation, he confessed to have strangled and killing her. He then took the body to her father's farmland and buried it there using a JCB excavator and returned home. Police recovered the body late on Sunday evening following Chirag's confession. 

Police are also verifying the role of Chirag's wife based on Rashmi's father information that she had a quarrel with Chirag's wife earlier. According to Rashmi's father, Rashmi and Chirag were quarrelling for quite some time and Chirag's mother and his wife  also had a  major fight with Rashmi three months ago and alleged that Rashmi was  severely beaten up by them.
