PORVORIM: Police discovered the skeletal remains of Padmashri Radhakrishna, a 56 year-old woman at her home in Porvorim on Wednesday. She is the wife of former assistant editor of the Marathi daily Gomantak and veteran freedom fighter Vaman Radhakrishna.
A case of unnatural death has been registered at Porvorim Police Station.
Porvorim PI, Paresh Naik informed that she was staying alone at a home after the demise of her husband. “The brother of this lady came and said that his sister is not responding to calls for the last four months. When we opened the house we found a skeleton on the floor in one of the bedrooms. The main door was found to be latched from the inside and there was no forcible entry made into the house. Hence no foul case is suspected as nothing in the house was robbed,” he said.
“She was undergoing treatment at IPHB at Bambolim. She must have died four months back and hence only bones were found,” added Paresh.
A case has been register by Porvorim Police under section 174 IPC. The skeletal remains of the lady have been sent to the morgue at Goa Medical College, Bambolim. Post mortem will be carried out on Thursday to ascertain the cause of death.
