Hyderabad: A woman died by suicide in Hyderabad’s Nacharam on Thursday, December 26, after she was allegedly harassed by a friend over financial issues.
The deceased was identified as 28-year-old Pulavathi Deepti, a PhD holder who was employed at a research institute at Tarnaka in Hyderabad. Recently a complaint was filed against Deepti’s father with the Nacharam police.
Anita, the complainant alleged that she had paid Rs 35 lakh to Deepti’s father, who promised to arrange a government job for the complainant’s relative. However, Deepti’s father Sangeet Rao absconded after receiving the money.
As Rao went absconding, Anita’s family had been visiting Deepti’s residence for the past few days and quarrelled with the family. “Frustrated over it, Deepthi made a video in which she blamed her father Sangeet Rao, and other persons – Anita, Anil and Somaiah for creating circumstances that forced her to end her life. Deepti hanged to the ceiling fan on Wednesday and ended her life,” said Rudvir Kumar.
The police booked a case against Sangeet Rao, Anita, Anil, Somaiah and another person. On Friday, Sangeet Rao, Anita and Somaiah were arrested by the police and sent to judicial remand.
