The family, he said, then proceeded to the police station to lodge a complaint about the disappearance of the relative.
He said later after the announcement in the town , a resident going to fetch water in the river , which is a source of water for the town , saw the body of the deceased floating, and therefore informed the family of the deceased about it.
Superintendent Reindorf Sam indicated that preliminary investigations reveal that the woman went to fetch water early morning but was unfortunately hit by the epilepsy, leading to her drowning.
