An Orissa-based maid servant who worked at Nadia Torrado’s residence here will be interrogated by Goa police to unearth further evidence in the death case.

“We will be sending a team to Orissa to take the statement of the maid who was working with the family between January to April this year,” a police official said.

Nadia’s family reportedly had three maids working at their place and only one of them was present when she allegedly committed suicide by consuming poison.

Police said efforts are on to get the statement of this maid servant, who could be a key witness in this case.

Another maid, who arrived at her place, a day after the 28-year-old woman’s death, has already deposed before the police giving the statement that her mother, Sonia, asked her to burn the evidence related to the case.

“We will have to interrogate the maid servant from Orissa, who has been working with the family for a long time,” the official said.

The Crime Branch expects that the maid will provide information on Pacheco’s relation with the family.
