<<The question should actually be Who was the murderer? The answer is given on this assumption.>>
The answer is maid.
The key point to be noted here is that the murder took place on a Sunday. According to the maid, she was collecting the post. As we know, there is no mail service on Sundays. So, she was obviously lying. Thus, there is no reason to believe her statement. The police understood this and arrested the maid immediately on charges of murder.
