Kundapur, Oct 4: In a tragic incident, a recently married woman committed suicide at her parental house in Keradi here on Sunday October 4.
The deceased has been identified as Pavitra Satish Shetty (23), daughter of Bhaskar Shetty and Lalitha, residents of Keradi.
Pavitra had got married to Satish Shetty of Chittoor on May 29 this year. Satish is working in Dubai and he was supposed to take Pavitra there in a few days.
Locals said that Pavitra and Satish were a happy couple with no marital dispute.
With her husband in Dubai, Pavitra used to stay alternatively both at her in-laws' house in Chittoor as well as her parental house in Keradi. Her father Bhaskar runs a shop in Keradi and she has an elder brother.
It is learnt on the morning of the incident, her husband called from Dubai and spoke to her. When he called for a second time, she did not pick the call. He then called his father-in-law and asked for Pavitra.
When Bhaskar went to check on his daughter, he found to his utter shock that she had hanged herself from the ceiling fan in her room.
The reason for taking the extreme step is not known.
Her body was taken to Kundapur government hospital for post-mortem.
On receiving news of her death, Pavitra's in-laws came to Kundapur from Chittoor.
Kundapur tahsildar Gayatri Nayak who spoke to Pavitra's father said that he had made no allegation against anyone and told her that his daughter and son-in-law were happy.
Kollur police have registered a case.
