New Delhi, Nov 15: Two female maids from West Bengal were found dead at their employer’s house in southeast Delhi’s Jungpura Extension on Monday morning, police said. The two women — aged 35 and 40 — hailed from Darjeeling in West Bengal and had been living in the staff quarters of the house since they started working there as maids in June, they said.
Police said no injury marks were present on the body of any of the deceased but the cause of death will be clear only after post-mortem.
