GUWAHATI: The body of an unidentified woman, floating in the water, was discovered early on Monday from a pond, sending ripples across the otherwise tranquil villages of Borbori and Kalikajori in Morigaon district. The shocking and grim find that the locals made has seen the quick response by the police in the matter that is shrouded in mystery and suspicion.

It was during the still hours of dawn when a few villagers began their routine chores that they spotted something peculiar in the waters of the village pond, eyewitnesses maintain. Taken aback, when they went closer, they were shocked to find a woman's body, devoid of life and floating artificially at the surface. The discovery little hid one's concern, with the local authorities being informed without wasting any time.

It is not yet known who the dead woman is because there were no immediate clues in this case, so it's anyone's guess what the cause of death may be. Since officials have not confirmed any theories, villagers have already been speculating on how foul play may have occurred: the woman may have come to a violent end.

The local police were at the scene shortly after the report was made. The pond thus became a site of crime, with many onlookers disturbed when the place was cordoned off and preliminary investigations were begun. The body was retrieved carefully by officers and has been sent for postmortem examination. Results are awaited and will confirm the cause of death, hence offering crucial insight into whether this woman was the victim of a tragic accident or something far more sinister.

Police officials in Morigaon confirmed identification of the woman was their immediate priority, appealing for any person who can provide leads. Locals are cooperating but have been anxious over what this tragic discovery could mean for their otherwise peaceful community.
