Hyderabad: A 33-year-old woman, Anitha, was found murdered at her flat in Dhathunagar under Meerpet police station limits on Wednesday. Her gold chain and two bangles were found missing.
The incident came to light when Anitha’s children returned home from school on Wednesday and found their mother lying in a pool of blood inside the house. They immediately alerted their father, Arun, who works at MIDHANI.
According to the preliminary information, Anitha usually went to school to bring her children home but did not go on Wednesday. The children returned home on their own and found her lying in a pool of blood.
Arun rushed home and shifted her to Apollo Hospital. However, doctors declared her dead on arrival.
The police said Anitha had sustained a serious head injury. As there were no signs of forcible entry into the house, police suspect that the persons involved could have been known to the victim.
Meerpet police, along with dog squad and clues teams, reached the spot following information from the Adibatla ACP and began an investigation.
Police collected CCTV footage from cameras near the apartment to identify those involved in the murder. They are investigating the circumstances surrounding the murder and the possible motive.
Further details are awaited.
