94-year-old strangled in Rajinder Nagar

New Delhi, Aug 25 (UNI) A 94-year-old woman was allegedly strangled in Old Rajinder Nagar area of Central Delhi during a heist this morning.

Kaushalya Bhalla, who lived with her second son in Gurgaon and had come to her 'own' home in Old Rajinder Nagar about a fortnight back, was found strangled in the kitchen by her maid at about 1200 hrs, according to sources.

Her hands and feet were also found tied.

Robbery seems to be the motive as the room was scattered with belongings all over, said the police.

While one of her sons -- Harish -- worked in ONGC Gurgaon, her elder son Surender was a consultant with the Nepal government. Her two other sons -- Prakash and Prithviraj -- and a daughter -- Saroj -- live in the US.

Neighbours said she was seen last at about 0930 hrs.
