Hyderabad: A woman allegedly killed her 13-month-old daughter and later died by suicide in her house in Nacharam here on Thursday. She is suspected to have been upset over harassment by her husband, police said.
The woman, T.Deepika (26), was married to T.Chandra Shekhar (30), a private employee, in 2019 and lived in Koundinya Nagar in Mallapur. According to the police, they had frequent fights, due to which Deepika was upset. The harassment increased after the birth of their daughter with Chandra Shekar allegedly demanding gold for the child from Deepika’s parents.
On Thursday, after Chandra Shekar left for work, Deepika is suspected to have killed the child and then died by suicide.
“She is suspected to have first killed their daughter by hanging her with a saree to the ceiling fan and later died by hanging herself from the same ceiling fan,” police said, adding that Chandra Shekar returned home and on finding them dead, immediately informed the Nacharam police who have taken up investigation.
“There was no suicide note found,” police said.
Meanwhile, Deepika’s parents and relatives staged a protest near the couple’s house and the Nacharam police station alleging Chandra Shekhar killed her and the child. They demanded strict action against him.
The bodies were shifted to the Gandhi Hospital morgue for autopsy.
