Mumbai: Five days after the body of a woman was found stuffed in a suitcase at Mumbai's Juhu Beach, the body of another unidentified woman in a bag has been discovered, police said Tuesday.

The body of the woman, believed to be in her mid-20s, was discovered from the Sandhurst railway station in south central Mumbai late Monday, said an official from the Government Railway Police (GRP). She seemes to have been killed only hours before her body was dumped in a bag at the station.

"The body has not decomposed yet," the official said about the body found in a brown suitcase.

Police have found strangulation marks on the victim's neck but no other injuries.

Late last week, a dead woman was found in a suitcase on an abandoned part of Juhu Beach. Nobody has been arrested yet for her murder.
