The body, which bore bullet injuries on the head, has been placed in the PGIMS’ mortuary for post-mortem examination. The incident came to light when a person spotted the body and alerted the police. A police team rushed to the scene and found the woman in a pool of blood on the canal bank. A forensic team later examined the site and collected evidence.
