BHUBANESWAR: A 62-year-old woman was found dead under mysterious circumstances in her Aerodrome Area house on Saturday evening. Manuprava Das, as she was identified, is believed to have been murdered.

Manuprava was last seen a week ago by her neighbours. She was living alone in her New Forest Colony house in the area. She was single. Airfield Police has sealed the premises. Post mortem will be conducted tomorrow.
