Udupi, Feb 9: In a tragic incident, a pregnant woman committed suicide at Kothpady in Vaddarse under Kota police limits here on Tuesday February 9.
The deceased, identified as Rekha Poojary (28), wife of Ganesh, was six months pregnant.
Rekha and Ganesh, a resident of Kothpady, had a love marriage and there were no marital problems, locals said. The couple has two-and-a-half-year-old daughter.
Rekha had visited her parental house in Manoor just two days ago to participate in Kendotsava and returned to Kothpady, it is said. Her brother's wedding is supposed to be held in a month's time, sources said.
Though the exact reason for taking the extreme step is not known, it is suspected that Rekha hanged herself as she was saddened by some problems in her parental house.
Kota police have registered a case.
