KOCHI : Three sisters locked themselves up inside their house with the body of 
their adopted daughter who died on Saturday owing to ailments, at Pachalam on 
Sunday.
Neighbours and local people called the police after the sisters refused to let 
them in. The police took the body out by breaking the doors open, despite 
strong protest from the sisters.
The police officials who arrived at the spot also had a rather difficult time 
in convincing the sisters to open the door. The deceased is Rajarajeshwari, 35. 
According to the police,the incident occurred at Mathai Manjooran Road near 
Pachalam. The sisters are Alli, 92,Shantha,82 and Baby,68. "The three women 
seemed to be leading rather reclusive lives for a long time. Among the three, 
Baby was mentally-challenged", the police officials  who arrived at the spot, 
said. "The shocking incident came to light when the neighbours were informed by 
Shantha about the death of their adopted daughter," they said.
The Ernakulam North  police has registered a case of unnatural death.
The body has been kept at Alappuzha Medical College Hospital for conducting 
post-mortem examination.
