The primary investigation by the police revealed that the accused was known to Valarmazi as the house was not broken into.
Valarmazi opened the door only to people known to her.Valarmazi even offered buttermilk to the guest as the police found buttermilk on the floor.
The accused allegedly took her to the bedroom and slit her throat as glass pieces were strewn on the floor of the hall. As Valarmazi's body was found in a semi-nude condition, the police are not denying rape.
Valarmazi allegedly died because of heavy blood loss. Surprisingly, SMS Residency has five floors but none of the neighbours heard any sound.
Murderer known?
Police personnel are also not denying that the accused could be Valarmazi's boyfriend as the accused took two gifts -- a Ganesha idol and another a heart-shaped show piece -- for her.
The police is not sure whether she accepted the gifts. There is a single bed in the hall and yet the accused took her to the bedroom.
D Rachappa, ACP, Mico Layout said, "The accused got gifts shows that he is a known person to Valarmazi and she also offered him buttermilk. The glass is broken in the hall. The accused took her to the bedroom and slit her throat. The body was semi-nude so we don't deny the rape. But only after the investigation can we conclude the real accused."
Mico Layout Police Inspector C N Janardhan said, "A complaint has been registered at Mico Layout police station and we will investigate the case. We have taken all the clues and tomorrow we will take the remaining important clues."
