The wife of an Army Major died under suspicious circumstances at her house in Bolarum, Secunderabad on Tuesday, April 18, the police said on Monday. The 30-year-old woman worked as a Radio Jockey with Radio Charminar, a community radio channel in the city.

The couple Vishnav Vishal Sharma (29) and woman Sandhya Singh (31), from Uttar Pradesh, got married 18 months ago.

According to the police, the woman reportedly hanged herself in the Army quarters at Allenby Lines under the Bolarum police station limits on the night of April 18. The police who received the information the next day shifted the body to Gandhi Hospital after registering a case under 304 (B) of Indian Penal Code.

Vaishnav is working with the 54 Infantry Division of the Army stationed at Bolarum. On April 18, Vaishnav too was at home, the police said. The next



morning, when he woke up he found Sandhya missing and searched for her. A little later, Vaishnav found her hanging from the ceiling fan in one of the rooms. He alerted the police, who rushed to the spot and shifted the body to Gandhi Hospital mortuary for postmortem. Later, it was handed over to the family members.

However, family members claimed that on Wednesday, April 19, Sandhya’s sister made a call to her but there was no response. As the she did not respond, her sister sent an email to the police alerting them.
S Ranga Rao, investigation officer, said a case under Section 498 A of Indian Penal Code was registered against Vaishnav on April 19 itself. “It is a case of suspicious death. However, the family members of the victim claim that Sandhya was murdered. We are waiting for the postmortem examination report to further action,” the official said.
