Hyderabad: A software engineer from Miyapur who attempted suicide by consuming unknown poisonous substance, died while undergoing treatment on Thursday.
She reportedly ordered the poison from an e-commerce site. A family dispute is suspected to have led to the suicide, police said.
As per available information, M Venkata Nagalaxmi (29), a native of Chatrai village in Eluru of Andhra Pradesh was married to Manoj Manikanta, a construction contractor from the same village about five months ago. The couple was living in a rented house in Gokul Plots in Miyapur.
According to the police, the couple has been having frequent arguments over trivial matters for quite sometime. The elders from both sides had earlier intervened and worked out a compromise too. However, the issues persisted.
During this, Nagalaxmi who was upset over the developments in her personal life decided to take the extreme step. For this, she reportedly bought a poisonous substance online on November 26 and kept it in the house.
After one such argument with her husband on Wednesday, she consumed the poison. Her house owner noticed her and informed the family members. She was immediately shifted to a private hospital in KPHB, where she died on Thursday.
Based on a complaint from her family, the Miyapur police have booked a case and took up investigation. They alleged harassment on the part of Manoj led to her suicide.
The body was shifted to the Gandhi Hospital morgue for autopsy.
