Her sister, 25, told the police that she had granted the man and his brother a loan amounting to Rs two lakhs for the treatment of their mother. Despite repeated requests, they were not repaying the amount.

They were not returning the money despite her repeated requests. For the past few weeks, they were threatening and harassing her,” she told the police. 

According to the report by the outlet, the police said that the woman used to live with her mother and siblings at Uttam Nagar residence. Her body was found by her elder sister, 29, when she returned home around 9 p.m. on Saturday, i.e., March 29.
