Imphal, October 02 2020:
A woman was found dead inside a room of Hotel Yanglen, Paona Keithel this afternoon.
According to a police source, the woman checked in at the hotel with a man today.
As the hotel staff asked for registration of their names and other details, they urged the hotel staff to first give them the key of a room, saying they would register later.
Subsequently, one hotel staff showed them to room no 2 of the first floor.
As they did not come out for quite a long time for registration, some hotel staff went to check them but the room was found locked from outside.
As the situation looked suspicious, police were informed.
Soon, the room's lock was broke open and the woman who looked to be around 45-50 years was found dead in semi-naked condition inside the room, said the source.
A scarf (chuni) was also found on the dead body suggesting that she might have been strangulated.
Police officers of Imphal West and Forensic Science Laboratory experts came and examined the scene.
Meanwhile, the dead body has been deposited at RIMS mortuary for identification and post mortem examination while a case has been registered at City police station.
