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.
