A source, who craved anonymity because of the current state of the family, said she was killed last night, and her body was discovered this morning outside the gate of her residence.
The source alleged that the maids were major suspects considering that there were traces inside the house that they tried to cover up.
He noted that the placement of the body outside, after the act, could be a decoy to exonerate themselves and linked her murder to staying outside the house gate late.
