A 24-year-old woman was found murdered with her throat slit, in JP Nagar after she was possibly sexually assaulted on Tuesday night.

The incident came to light when her father, a retired doctor, returned to the city from Tumkur and found his daughter lying in pool of blood. Ashwini was married to Sunil Kumar, a software engineer working in Bangalore, two years ago.

According to the police, she had returned to her parents home due to some family dispute which is pending in the court.

During the preliminary investigation by the VV Puram Police, it came to light that the perpetrator entered the house with the consent of the victim, as the main door of the house was locked from inside, and escaped from the back door which was kept open.

Police said that prima facie there was no evidence to say that she was raped or sexually assaulted and they were waiting for the medical report.
