Oct 20 : Two eunuchs were Tuesday found murdered in their southeast Delhi house which had been ransacked. Police suspect their adopted son and a driver, who are missing since the incident, to be behind their murders.

Meena, 30, was found lying on the ground floor while the body of Vimlesh, 45, was on the first floor when one of their acquaintance Khaleel Ahmed, along with some people, broke open the doors of their house in Abul Fazal enclave in Jamia Nagar Tuesday afternoon.

The police said both eunuchs were stabbed to death and the house was ransacked. The bodies have been sent for post-mortem.

The matter came to light when Ahmed, who used to visit them daily, noticed that the house had been locked from outside for the past two days and their Maruti car was also missing.

"After detecting a foul smell from the house, Ahmed gathered some people and broke open the doors of the house," said a police officer.

Vimlesh's adopted son Nadeem and their driver Sultan are missing.

"Vimlesh was one of the senior eunuchs in the area and is said to have collected a large amount of cash during Diwali. We suspect the duo to be behind the killing as the house has been completely ransacked," the police officer added.

Police said forensic experts have collected finger prints and other clues from the spot. A case of murder has been registered at the Jamia Nagar police station. (IANS)
