Mysore/Mysuru: A lady advocate was found dead by hanging at her residence in Ramakrishnanagar early this morning. Chandrakala Alagundi (32), a Member of Mysore Bar Association, is the deceased.
Chandrakala, a native of Gadag and a practicing advocate of the city, had married one Pradeep, a divorcee and a resident of Ramakrishnanagar three years ago, in what is said to be a love marriage and the couple had a year old child.
But Chandrakala was found hanging at her residence in the early hours of this morning and was rushed to a nearby hospital, where she was declared brought dead. Domestic disharmony is said to be the reason for Chandrakala’s extreme step.
However, Chandrakala’s elder sister J. Latha, a Government employee and a resident of Mysuru, who suspected it to be case of murder, has lodged a complaint with the Police accusing Chandrakala’s husband Pradeep, father-in-law Venkatesh and mother-in-law Rajalakshmi of harassing her younger sister for dowry and killing her.
Based on the complaint, Kuvempunagar Police have registered a case in this regard and are investigating.
