Mumbai: Monica Ghurde, a well-known perfume designer, has been found dead at her home in Sangolda, Goa police said on Friday.
Police said the body was discovered on Thursday evening by one of her neighbours who had a spare key to Ghurde's flat.
The neighbour was alerted by Ghurde's brother after the 39-year-old perfume designer failed to respond to his repeated calls.
On entering the flat with the spare key, the neighbour found Ghurde's semi-naked body in the bedroom, police said.
"For the time being we have registered a case of murder, but we also suspect rape and burglary. We are waiting for the post-mortem report," a senior police official said.
The autopsy is being carried out at the Goa Medical College.
The DIG and forensic experts are at the spot right now.
Ghurde who started out as a photographer went on to become a perfumer and researcher, setting up the perfumery house MoLAB.
