According to the FIR, the woman, who was mentally challenged for the past 20 years and was under treatment, had left home during dinner time last night and did not return.

The family members searched for her till late last night but could not trace her.

They, however, found the woman's half-naked body some distance away and informed the police before rushing her to M G M Hospital here.

A police team was immediately rushed to the spot and it found no injury mark on the woman's body, Mahatha said, addingthat she might have been strangulated.

Her father, however, claimed she was raped before being murdered.
