Udupi, Aug 6: A 27-year-old model from Kalmady died by suicide at her residence on Tuesday, August 6.

The deceased has been identified as Krithi Bangera (27), a former hotel employee who was actively interested in modelling.

Krithi, who lived with her mother and sister in Kalmady, reportedly ended her life by hanging herself with a shawl in her room.

She had been at home for the past one month after quitting her job at a hotel in Manipal. Krithi had lunch with her mother on Tuesday afternoon. Later, while talking on the phone, she reportedly pushed her mother, stated that she was going to end her life, and locked herself in the bedroom. As she had made similar statements in the past, her mother did not take it seriously at first. However, when there was no response for a long time despite repeated knocks on the door, she was found hanging.

Family members stated that she had been appearing highly stressed over the past few days.

A case has been registered at the Malpe police station based on a complaint filed by her sister.
