The attack occurred while she was sleeping in her hut located in Sevalal Thanda locality in Mustabad mandal headquarters. Superintendent of Police Akhil Mahajan stated that the dogs entered the hut, attacked her, and consumed parts of her body before leaving.
The woman’s family, who live nearby, discovered her body on Thursday morning.
