The pensioner was last seen on Monday morning. Relatives living next door became suspicious when calls for the woman went unanswered. A relative peeped in the yard just after 18:00 hours and saw a substance dripping from the house and on closer examination realised that it was blood.

Police who were called to the house found the woman on the floor in a crouched position. Her throat appeared to be slit and she was only wearing a yellow top, a senior police official said.
