The body of a woman, aged around 25 years, was found stuffed inside a suitcase along the Behta Hazipur-Banthla canal Tuesday morning, police said.

A team from the Loni Border Police Station collected the bag and sent the body for a post-mortem.

According to Assistant Commissioner of Police (Ankur Vihar) Ajay Kumar Singh, preliminary investigation suggests that the woman was a Hindu, as she was wearing toe rings and had applied sindoor.
