The suspicious death of a 19-year-old girl at Nagendra Colony in the Gopalapatnam area of Visakhapatnam took a turn with the police taking five persons, including her brother and sister-in-law, into custody.
The girl, Bhagyalakshmi, allegedly committed suicide by hanging. Though the incident occurred on 8 November, it came to light only on 10 November as the locals, who noticed her brother and sister-in-law performing her last rites in a hurry, suspected some foul play and informed the police.
The Visakhapatnam police, who registered a case of suspicious death case, arrested the victim’s brother, sister-in-law and three others on 11 November night. Bhagyalakshmi had been residing with her brother and sister-in-law for the past one year.
In another case, a housewife in the city committed suicide due to alleged harassment for additional dowry.
According to the police, the woman, Dilleswsri was married to one Rajasekhar of Akkayyapalem.
In a complaint lodged with the police, the victim’s father alleged that he gave Rs 6 lakh to her daughter as she was being harassed by his son-in-law for money. She took the extreme step as his son-in-law did not stop harassment even after giving the demanded amount, he alleged in the complaint.
Following the complaint, the police registered a case and are investigating.
