GURDASPUR – A woman was looted and hammered to death in Babbehali village, 10 km from Gurdaspur.
Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Gurpreet Singh Toor said, “The needle of suspicion is on somebody known to the family. I have formed various teams that are exploring all angles. Prima facie, it appears that the accused had gone to the woman’s house with the intention to loot. The murderer managed to flee with Rs 10,000,” said the SSP.
The police said Sarabjit Kaur (40), whose husband Harwinder Singh works as a government school teacher in Dhariwal Kichian village on the Gurdaspur-Pandori road, died due to hammer blows on her head when she resisted the criminal’s attempt to loot her gold jewellery. The woman was alone in the house when the incident took place.
