Kolkata, Oct 4
The half-naked body of an unidentified woman was recovered from the premises of a primary school in West Bengal's Purulia district, police officials said on Saturday.
According to police sources, the body was recovered from Alangidanga Primary School in ward number 21 of Purulia city.
"A case has started. The process of identifying the body is on. As schools are closed, it is being investigated whether the woman was murdered somewhere else and the body was dumped in the school. It is also being investigated whether the woman was raped. That can only be confirmed once we receive the autopsy report," a senior officer of Purulia district police said.
Such an incident has cast a shadow on the festive mood of the city.
