A 25-year-old man, who murdered his girlfriend, stuffed her body in a suitcase and dumped it in a drain at Suraram colony, was sentenced to rigorous imprisonment for life by a sessions court in Sangareddy.
The R.C. Puram police arrested the man, Sunil Kumar alias Deepak, in 2019 after he murdered his girlfriend, Buddana Lavanya (25), and staged a kidnap drama to avoid suspicion. Mr. Sunil killed her in a room at hotel at the RGI Airport for insisting that he marry her, said the police.
Sunil and Lavanya had studied B. Tech (Mechanical) at CMR College, Medchal, and started dating in 2017. She told her family about him and an engagement was also being arranged. During this time, he claimed that he got a job in Muscat, Oman, and showed her parents a forged employee ID card. He told them that he needed to take her there with him for the interview formalities, said the police.
