    A senior police officer said the BMW of Anissia's husband, her diamond ring and their mobile phones have been seized.
     
     
    "A notice has been issued to her husband, his parents and other witnesses to join the investigation," he said.
     
     
    Though police had lifted the relevant exhibits, a forensic team has been called to reconstruct the scene of crime, he added.
     
    Police have also sought the details of the deceased and her husband's bank accounts and they will be sealed.
