A 64-year-old woman living with her ailing husband in their Behala apartment was found murdered on Monday morning, police said. ADVERTISEMENTNeighbours said they heard screams for help around 8.30am but found the apartment door locked from inside. Deputy commissioner (south west) Rahul De said: “The woman had multiple sharp cuts and had lost a lot of blood. We detained three people who worked as domestic help in the house. This is not the first time an elderly Calcuttan has been murdered by someone they trusted at home.
