Police are investigating the brutal killing of 74-year-old grandmother Sookhdaya “Chandra” Jury, whose body was discovered in her bedroom at her Springlands, Gasparillo, home on Tuesday afternoon.
Jury was found by her daughter around 3 p.m. at the family’s San Fabien Road residence. According to police, the elderly woman was lying on her bedroom floor, bleeding from a deep wound to her throat.
Her daughter told investigators that she had last spoken to Jury just over an hour earlier, during a video call around 1.42 p.m. Jury had promised to pick her up at her Caratal Road home at 2 p.m., but when she failed to arrive by 2.20 p.m. and repeated calls to her cellphone went unanswered, the daughter became worried and went to check on her.
Later that evening, detectives confirmed that Jury’s cellphone was found discarded in the washroom of a bar in Gasparillo, raising further questions about her final moments and the movements of her attacker.
Crime Scene Unit officers and homicide investigators processed the home while police canvassed the area for witnesses and surveillance footage. No arrest had been made up to last night.
