Bengaluru : Police in Bengaluru reported the discovery of a deceased 37-year-old woman from Uzbekistan in a hotel room on Wednesday.
Identified as Zareen, the woman had checked into the hotel located in Bengaluru’s Seshadripuram area on March 5.
According to authorities, hotel staff attempted to contact her around 4:30 pm but received no response. Concerned, they used a master key to enter the room, where they found Zareen deceased.
