Mysuru: A woman was allegedly found dead in the water sump of her house in Alanahalli on Tuesday. The Police, suspecting it to be a case of murder, have arrested the woman’s husband and mother-in-law.
The deceased has been identified as Mani (Basammanni), aged 34 and a resident of Ashraya Layout in Alanahalli. Her body was found in the sump at about 3 pm on that day.
Based on the complaint from Mani’s sister Parvathamma, Alanahalli Police, who have registered a case, arrested Mani’s husband Chowdappa and her mother-in-law Gowramma.
Mani and Chowdappa have two children. It is learnt that there used to be frequent quarrels between the couple over petty issues. A fight broke out between the couple on Tuesday too, during which Chowdappa and his mother Gowramma murdered Mani and dumped her body inside the sump.
