Howrah, 24 April (H.S.): A shocking murder case has come to light from Bally in West Bengal’s Howrah district, where a homoeopathy doctor was allegedly killed by his domestic help inside his residence. The accused later surrendered at the police station.

The deceased has been identified as Ramakrishna Chalaki, who lived in a multi-storey residential building near GT Road in Bally. According to reports, he was attacked with a sharp weapon on Thursday evening, leading to his death.

The police said that soon after the incident, the accused domestic help went to Bally Police Station, confessed to the crime, and surrendered. She was subsequently arrested, and an investigation into the case has been initiated. The accused was produced before a Howrah court on Friday.
