Trilok Kaur, widow of one Yashpal Singh, was found dead this morning. The woman's milkman rang the doorbell at Kaur's house, which went unanswered and then he entered her room following which he found her body lying in a pool of blood, City SP Om Prakash said.
The milkman then raised an alarm. Kaur's son, Hardeep, and her daughter-in-law were on the upper floor and they rushed down upon hearing the milkman's screams, he said.
In a complaint filed to the police, Hardeep has registered a suspicion that his mother might have been murdered by someone who attempted to loot the house.
According to the SP, Kaur might have been murdered in cases related to money.
The body has been sent for post-mortem and police are investigating the case, he said.
