Worried neighbours called the police after hearing her screams.
When the cops arrived, they found Olga lying on the floor in a pool of blood.
She was given first aid and then rushed to A&E, where she later died, as reported by Need To Know.
Detectives immediately began working to identify the perpetrators.
Neighbours told the police they had seen hooded individuals dressed in black enter the home.
The murder took place in Puerto Cabello, west of Caracas, Venezuela, last Friday (21 Mar).
Olga’s granddaughters, Ambar Yannelis Verhelst Armas and Oriana Valentina Verhelst Piña, were questioned.
Ambar, 18, and Oriana, 20, claimed that unknown men had broken into their home to commit a robbery.
They said the men had restrained them and their grandmother, who was allegedly stabbed after refusing to hand over her belongings.
However, the police noted inconsistencies in their accounts.
After reviewing CCTV footage, they came to the conclusion that the women had staged the break-in and committed the murder themselves.
They were arrested and handed over to prosecutors.
Local media do not report a suspected motive and it is not clear if anything was taken from the home.
