The district got off to a bad start in the New Year with the crime graph spiralling upwards. The first fortnight of January saw eight murders being committed here. There has been no let-up in robberies and thefts during this period either. In the latest incident of murder, which took place yesterday in the posh Sector 14 here, Sangeeta, wife of an industrialist, was hammered to death in her house. The middle-aged woman was alone when an unidentified person entered the house at about 2 pm and attacked her with a hammer which he was carrying. The accused left the hammer on the spot and fled. The deceased’s husband was away at his factory in Sector 4 at that time. When he came to his house for lunch he found his wife lying in a pool of blood. The dog squad and fingerprint experts rushed to the house but the police are reported to be clueless.
