A woman in-home quarantine was found murdered at her house in Chandigarh's Sector 23 on Wednesday morning. According to police officials, the deceased, identified as Jyoti Singh, was found wrapped in a blanket in her government accommodation.

According to a report in Hindustan Times, the police have registered a case of murder against the woman's husband Mandeep Singh, who is at large. The alleged incident came to light when the police brought the deceased's 13-year-old son back to his house in Chandigarh from Ludhiana after he was found roaming alone under mysterious circumstances on Tuesday.
