26-yr-old Delhi woman's body found in Gurugram's Sector 21
Gurugram, Nov. 6 -- The body of a 26-year-old Delhi woman, who had been murdered, was discovered at a rented accommodation in Gurugram's Sector 21, police said on Wednesday. Neighbours told the police the woman had been nearly seven months pregnant. According to police, a man she was allegedly in a relationship with and who is now on the run is the prime suspect.
Police identified the woman as Anguri Devi, of Kapashera in Delhi, who had been living separately from her husband at the accommodation in Udyog Vihar's Dundahera for the last few months. Police believe she was either strangled or throttled to death. However, they are waiting for an autopsy report to confirm the sequence of events leading up to the murder.
Police believe she was killed earlier this week. The last time her neighbours had seen her was on Friday evening. Her body was discovered Tuesday evening after a neighbour spotted blood seeping through the gap of the main door of the two-bedroom home onto the landing of the floor where the victim lived.
The neighbour immediately alerted the building caretaker Dilip Kumar, who contacted the police control room for help.
Inspector Vinod Kumar, station house officer of Udyog Vihar police station, said that the main door had been locked from outside. Once police broke the lock open, they found the woman's body hidden beneath a bed, he said, adding that perhaps the blood had leaked out because of decomposition.
The body has been sent for autopsy and police are in the process of registering a murder case. Kumar said the victim lived separately from her husband, who had been among the suspects. "However, police were able to reach him easily on the phone," said Kumar, and the husband denied having met the woman or being in contact with her since Friday. "We are still quizzing him," the inspector added. Police believe the suspect entered the building late on Friday or Saturday to avoid being spotted and fled the same way after committing the crime.
"We will nab the killer soon after which the motive will become clear," said Kumar....
