Delhi: 82-year-old woman, her 3 daughters, guard found dead at Shahdara's Mansarovar Park

An 82-year-old woman, her three daughters and a male guard were found dead inside a house on Saturday in Delhi, police said.

The four women belonged to a family having oil business in the area. They were found dead at their house in Shahdara's Mansarovar Park area, according to Deputy Commissioner of Police Nupur Prasad.

The deceased have been identified as Urmila Jindal, and her daughters Sangeeta, 56, Nupur, 48, and Anjali, 38.

The guard has been identified as Rakesh, 42.

According to a media report, a sharp weapon has also been recovered from the spot. It is believed that the weapon was used to stab the five victims.

PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION

The police control room received a call about the incident around 7 am on Saturday.

Preliminary investigation showed there was "no forced entry" into the house and no valuables were stolen, a police officer said.

The 42-year-old guard was killed on the ground floor and the women on the first.

The first floor where the three women were killed has only one room, and the dead body of the guard was found near the staircase.

One of the family members, Rakesh Jindal, said, "Four members of my uncle's family were killed by criminals. We are suspecting labourers who were doing whitewash."

"There were 40 members in our family living in the ancestral house. No one heard anything."

A friend of one of deceased was quoted by ANI, "I got a call from a friend and got to know about the incident. Four family members and one guard were murdered. Some days ago, tension regarding property dispute was going on."

"The crime scene indicates a friendly entry. Can't say motive behind the murders now but we have a few inputs and probe is underway," Special Police Commissioner said.

It is suspected that the killings could be a fallout of a property dispute, according to the police.
