Yedke was staying alone in a flat at Kamgar Nagar, he said.
According to the official, Yedke was off duty for more than a year, due to which disciplinary action was taken against her.
Her death came to light when neighbours informed the police about a foul smell emanating from the PSI's flat for the last two days. Police officials broke open the flat and found Yedke lying dead, he said.
The body, which had started decomposing, was sent for a post-mortem examination at a civic-run hospital, said the official, adding a probe was underway.
