Pune woman secretly returned from UK; what she told domestic help before her death

In Pune, India, a 34-year-old woman named Mugdha Deshmukh was discovered dead in a rented apartment on October 27. Her family had believed she was studying in the UK when, in fact, she secretly returned to India in August after completing her MBA there. Upon her parents' inability to contact her on October 24, they learned from her London-based friend that she had last spoken with Mugdha on October 22.

Following her friend's report to the London police, she was confirmed missing. Concerned for her safety, her family reached out to Indian authorities, who traced her to a residential complex in Pune's Gahunje area. The apartment, located in the Lodha Belmondo complex, was found empty, with no visible injury marks on Mugdha's body.

Her preserved remains would be analyzed to determine the precise cause of death. Police are continuing their investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death.
