A 64-year-old woman was found murdered at her residence in West Delhi’s Nangloi area on Tuesday afternoon. Prima facie, it appears that some insider’s role in the killing since no valuables have been found missing.
According to the police, Pushpa Devi lived alone in Rajdhani Park area of Nangloi. Her husband died a few years and her two sons with their families reside in Tikari Kalan village of Delhi. “There were injury marks on the victim’s head which suggest that a blunt object was used to kill her,” a senior police officer said.
Pushpa also ran a grocery shop in her house, said a senior police officer, adding police were investigating the case from all angles, including property dispute. “She was found murdered at her residence this morning. The police suspect insider’s role in the murder as no valuables are missing from the spot. Pushpa’s neighbours also didn’t hear any noise from her house. Besides, there was also no sign of forced entry,” the officer added.
After registering the case of murder at Nangloi police station, the police started their investigation and several teams have been formed. Investigators are scanning the call detail records (CDRs) of the victim and also questioning Pushpa’s sons and would soon make arrests in the case.
