A 40-year-old man has reportedly hacked a woman to death before he ended his life, in Eluru of Andhra Pradesh.
On the night of August 27, D. Satyanarayana had invited U. Sujatha (30) to his house in Eluru town, where he had reportedly hacked her to death. The duo had been in a relationship for more than four years and living in the Eluru district headquarters. Five years ago, Mr. Satyanarayana had deserted his wife and was earning his livelihood as a painter.
Eluru DSP E. Srinivasulu told The Hindu on August 29: “The preliminary details of the case have emerged based on two suicide notes reportedly left behind by him, one in his house and another one on the railway track on which he ended his life, in the night of August 27.”
The note found near the railway track mentioned the presence of Ms. Sujatha’s dead body in his house. “We have found her body in his house which was locked. The exact reason for the extreme step by Mr. Satyanarayana is yet to be ascertained,” said the DSP.
The two bodies were shifted to the government hospital in Eluru for post-mortem.
