According to the police, Sophia had been staying with two of her friends, Moses (23) and Naomi (22), both from Senapati, for the past few days.
“Moses said Sophia had requested to stay with them until she found a vacant room, so they agreed to let her stay.”
Both Moses and Naomi worked in different night-shift call centres. Naomi returned home around 7:30 AM and found Sophia snoring on the bed, assuming she was sleeping as usual. Naomi also went to sleep.
Later, Moses came home around 11:15 AM and tried to wake Sophia. When she did not respond but only groaned faintly, he immediately woke up his sister. It was at that moment that they realised Sophia had passed away, said Moses.
The incident came to light when Moses called a friend, who then informed the police.
DCP South Delhi, B.S. Jaiswal, who visited the scene, told media personnel that no injury marks were found on the body. He added that the cause of death would be determined after a post-mortem examination.
A CBI team also inspected the room and the body, but the cause of death remains unknown at this stage.
