Deputy Commissioner of Police (South East Delhi), Isha Pandey said, a PCR call was received on Tuesday at 5.17 pm, regarding murder of one female senior citizen on the first floor of a flat situated in Amar Colony.
Immediately, a police team rushed to the spot and met the caller Amarjeet (relative of the deceased), who resides on the second floor of the same building. Pandey stated that Kulwant Kaur used to reside alone on the first floor of the building.
According to Amarjeet, the incident came to light, when the maid Sameena Praveen came for household work on Tuesday and found Kulwant Kaur lying unconscious on the floor.
