Even 48 hours after the incident that occurred around 4pm on Tuesday, the police are still trying hard to make a breakthrough in the case which is riddled with mysteries. 

Police officers said they are waiting for the postmortem report to confirm whether it was a case of murder or suicide. But the preliminary evidence suggests it to be a murder as the younger sister identified as Jeethu fled immediately after the neighbours spotted the fire at the house and there were blood stains on the front door of the house. 

The New Indian Express quoted a police official as saying “We have collected some CCTV visuals which show the younger sister walking along the road after the incident.”
