| [Arab News] An American woman has been found beheaded in her hotel room in the western Indian state of Rajasthan, police said. Indian police said on Friday they had found the decapitated body of an American woman at a hotel near Jodhpur and had detained her teenage son as a possible suspect. The 55-year-old victim identified only as Cindy, had been traveling in India with her 15-year-old son John, police said. The mother and son were staying in a luxury tent encampment in Ossian, a small town on the outskirts of Jodhpur city. "Preliminary investigations suggest that the son had a fight with his mother," police officer Girdhari Sharma said. Sharma said the woman's decapitated body had been discovered in the bathroom by resort staff and the boy had been taken into custody and has been sent for autopsy. "We are waiting for the report," the official said. The mother and son are from Pennsylvania, US, and landed in Jodhpur from Mumbai on Aug. 11," the official said. |
