Woman Found Dead In Mumbai's Trident Hotel
A 60-year-old woman was found dead in her hotel room at the Trident Hotel, Mumbai, on Saturday, January 18. The woman had been staying alone at the hotel since January 6, reported Mid-Day. Hotel staff reported that she had asked housekeeping to refrain from entering her room on Friday, January 17, stating that she would request food and water as needed.
When there was no response from her for over 24 hours, hotel personnel became concerned. They used a spare key to enter her room, where they discovered her lifeless body. The police investigation revealed no signs of foul play, and the initial post-mortem examination showed no external injuries. As a result, an Accidental Death Report (ADR) was filed at the Marine Lines police station.
"At this stage, there are no indications of foul play, but the viscera has been preserved for further testing to determine the exact cause of death," said Pravin Mundhe, Deputy Commissioner of Police, Zone 1. Authorities have also informed the woman’s family about the incident.
The woman's relatives were quoted as saying that she had been dealing with a skin condition and depression. Before her stay at the Trident, she had spent nearly a month at the Taj Hotel, also staying alone. Investigations are ongoing.

West Bengal News: Suvendu Adhikari alleges TMC attack in Purulia, stages midnight protest at police stationWest Bengal Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari on Sunday alleged that his convoy was attacked by Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers in Purulia district, triggering panic and chaos at the spot. Adhikari was returning after attending a programme in Purulia when the incident reportedly took place. Following the alleged attack, he raised slogans and proceeded to the local police station, where he staged a peaceful sit-in protest for nearly five hours, extending until after midnight. Adhikari accused the ruling TMC of orchestrating a planned attack on his vehicle and alleged the involvement of the state police. He claimed that the incident reflected a nexus between “criminal elements and the administration,” and held Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who also heads the state home department, responsible for the situation. In strong remarks, he alleged that files were stolen and intimidation was carried out by individuals linked to the ruling party. The BJP leader also shared posts on social media platform X late at night, reiterating his allegations and stating that the fight against what he termed “political violence” in West Bengal would continue. After the incident, Adhikari reached the police station, where he remained seated in protest for several hours, demanding action against those responsible. The TMC, however, has not yet issued an official response to the allegations.
