Senior police officials said they are clueless about the culprits and the motive behind the murder.

During its investigations, the police found out some drops of blood from the scene of crime leading to a nearby flat. The flat occupant had told police that his wife has suffered a thumb injury on the same day and the blood was hers.

"The blood group of the minor and the neighbour's wife matched - both were A-positive. We have ordered for further DNA testing of their samples. But as of now we don't have anything substantial in the case," senior superintendent of police (SSP) Raghubir Lal said.
