The wife of an Indian Army major was found dead at New Delhi’s Brar Square area on Saturday, ANI reported.

The woman was on her way to the Army Base Hospital in Delhi Cantonment for a physiotherapy session at 10 am, the police said, adding that she was found dead around 10.30 am. The police said they had received a call from passers-by about the body.

The police said that an official vehicle had dropped her off at the hospital, according to NDTV. But when the driver went to pick her up, he was told that she had not turned up that day.

“We received a call for an accident but later found injuries on her neck,” Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Vijay Kumar told ANI. “We are registering a murder case. We have solid clues about the accused. Her husband identified her.”

Her throat was slit, the police said, adding that they suspected the killer ran over her body later. The police have sent the body for an autopsy and are analysing her call records.
