“The woman was likely to be in her 30s or 40s,” said a police officer, “She had some jewellery on her body. We’ve distributed pamphlets in which we have included her photos and a picture of her jewellery. We are hopeful that she will be identified.” Investigating officials are facing difficulties in the investigation, as there was no CCTV in the area where the body was found.
“Except for the nose ring, ring and earrings, we have no identification marks on the body. The pamphlets include photos of the jewellery. We are also scanning all the missing persons reports to check for clues.”
