A woman was found murdered at her residence in Annapoorneshwarinagar on Wednesday evening. The victim has been identified as Roopa, 34. “Her husband, who is absconding, is the main suspect in her murder,” said the police.
The incident came to light when Roopa’s son returned home from tuition to find her body. Her throat had been slit with a kitchen knife. The child told the police that his father was at home when he left for tuition.
“But he has been absconding since then,” said a police officer, adding that the couple were married for nine years.
The election authorities are gearing up for the counting of votes cast in the simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh, scheduled to be held on June 4. The Collectors and Election Officers of Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli and Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) districts said on May 23 (Thursday) that their teams were ready for the counting of votes.
Responding to the prolonged water scarcity, the residents of the area took to the streets in protest on Wednesday. The protest, which drew attention to their plight, stopped only after the intervention of the police. It was not until 1.30 p.m. that a 4000-litre tanker was finally delivered by BWSSB, providing relief to the water-starved residents.
