A grocery shop owner and his wife were found murdered in their apartment in Greater Noida on Wednesday, said police.
Additional Commissioner of Police (Law and Order) Love Kumar said the deceased couple Vinay Gupta and Neha Gupta had moved to this flat a few months ago because they had a grocery store there.
A case has been lodged and investigations are underway to find out the killers, Kumar told reporters, adding the police suspected someone known to the couple behind the killing.
The bodies of the couple, both in their fifties, were found in a pool of blood at their ninth-floor flat in Cherry County society, they said.
“The couple was found dead inside their ninth-floor apartment in the morning. Officials from the local police station, special operations group, forensic and surveillance departments are inspecting the site. Dog squads have also been pressed into service,” the officer said.
