A disturbing incident unfolded in Mamring, Namchi, after tenants of a four-storied building owned by Tara Gurung noticed a foul smell coming from one of the locked rooms. Upon inspection, an unidentified body was discovered inside.

The deceased was later identified as 30-year-old Sita Chettri of Gelling, Soreng District, who had been residing in the building and operating a shop there for the past one and a half years.

Police officials, forensic experts, a fingerprint analyst, and a photographer examined the spot, while the SDM/Namthang carried out the inquest proceedings in the presence of family members and witnesses. Authorities confirmed that the body was in an advanced stage of decomposition.

Following the completion of preliminary procedures, the body was shifted to STNM Hospital, Gangtok, for a medico-legal autopsy. Police have stated that all necessary formalities at the site have been completed, and the case remains under active investigation.
