It has been learnt that a man who was with her has gone missing and his mobile phone is switched off.

The couple had managed to get a house on rent through a local saloon owner. Both had introduced themselves as retail sellers of clothes.

When the two were not seen around and the house door was not locked from inside, a local resident went inside and found the woman dead in the toilet.
