CHENNAI: A Malaysian mother and her two children who went missing last Monday in South India have been found dead, police said.
The decomposed bodies of M Adhila Banu, 24, her son Mohd Aslam, seven, and daughter Ajira Banu, five, were found in Vadipatti in Madurai, in Tamil Nadu yesterday morning.
"It's a murder case, the bodies were identified by the victim's mother (Adhila's mother) and she confirmed they were the bodies of her daughter and two grandchildren.
"The three heavily decomposed bodies were found about five kilometres apart and were wrapped in white dhotis.
"The bodies were dumped in a canal filled with water, under a bridge. We have yet to establish the motive, the actual place and the reason for the murder," Vadipatti police inspector PR Lakshmanan told Bernama today.
Adila and her two children had returned to their native village in Barathi Nagar in Ramanathapuram District from Malaysia about a month ago and were staying with her parents.
According to her mother Saibu Nisha, 56, Adila and her two children left home last Monday afternoon to purchase cooking gas cylinder but failed to return.
The bodies, which were found about 150km from their home, are now in Rajaji Government Hospital in Madurai, undergoing post-mortem.
The district police have set up a special team to probe into the crime.
Her Malaysian husband, a driver, is still in Malaysia, police said.
