Bhubaneswar: A 31-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her room-mate here on Saturday night, police said. The incident took place at Lane-5 of Gouri Nagar under Lingaraj police limits in Bhubaneswar at about 2.45 am last night.
The victim was identified as Alakananda Das (31) of Balasore. The police have arrested 36-year-old Amisha Mitra, the victim's room-mate, after she confessed to the crime.
