Kolkata, Feb 7 (IBNS): Hanging body of a Bengali movie industry's actress was recovered from her apartment at E.M. Bypass area under Garfa Police Station limits in southern Kolkata on Tuesday evening, reports said.

According to reports, locals found the hanging body of actress Bitasta Saha inside her flat, where she was staying alone, and called in the police.

After being recovered, her body has been sent for post-mortem.
