Hyderabad: In a macabre incident, a Hyderabadi woman was murdered by her husband in Australia. According to sources, Ashokraj killed his wife Shweta and dumped the body in a bin on the roadside. After the murder, he brought his son to India and left him with his in-laws. Later, he went to Australia. The Victoria Police in Australia found the body and launched a probe into the murder and arrested Ashokraj. Further details in this connection are awaited.
Uppal MLA Bandari Lakshma Reddy said that efforts are being made to bring the body of Shweta, who died in Australia, to Hyderabad as soon as possible. He clarified that he has also spoken to Union Minister Kishan Reddy in that regard. According to reports, the post-mortem has been completed. He said that they would try to bring her body to the city once the postmortem report was submitted to the authorities concerned.
Ironically, many incidents of people belonging to India dying either in accidents or being murdered by their kin are being reported. The murder of Shweta shocked her family members and a pall of gloom descended on their house after learning about her death. Details of what led to the murder of the woman are yet to be ascertained.
