Woman, niece brutally murdered in Old City Hyderabad, June 12 (INN): A woman and her niece were brutally murdered at their house in Noor Khan Bazaar of Old City on Wednesday afternoon. The victims were identified as Sameena Fatima (45) and Syeda Daniya Anam (16), an Intermediate student.
The victim, Sameena, stayed along with her mother Sakina Fatima, daughter Kulsum Fatima and niece Daniya Anam at Agha Towers at Noorkhan Bazaar. Her husband, Syed Ali Asalath alias 'Prince' stays in Saudi Arabia.
On Wednesday morning Sakina locked the main door of the house and went out to drop Kulsum at her college in Somajiguda. She returned an hour later and found Daniya and Sameena lying in a pool of blood in their rooms.
'The killers entered into the house and killed them. No property is missing from the house,' Mirchowk Inspector, V Yadagiri Reddy said. He suspected that the financial transactions between Asalat and one Altaf could be the motive behind the murder. However, the case is being investigated with different angles, he said.
A CLUES team visited the spot and collected finger prints and other material from the spot. A sniffer dog pressed into service by the police went a few metres away from the house and stopped.
Mirchowk police has registered a case under Section 302 (Murder) and shifted the dead bodies to Osmania General Hospital mortuary for postmortem and efforts are being made to nab the killers.
