Family of four committed suicide in Komarole mandal

Giddalur: A family of four members, a couple and their two daughters, were found dead in their house in Allinagaram village in Komarole mandal near Giddalur, on early morning of Saturday.

According to the Komarole SI B Brahmanayudu and locals, Jakka Raghavendra Nagaraju, aged 42 years and Eswaramma, aged 38 years were married about 15 years ago and used to run a grocery store in their native village Allinagaram. They have two daughters Vaishnavi, aged 13 years and Varalakshmi, aged 12 years and sending them to local school. The couple suffered losses in the business and are facing pressure from the money lenders.

To pay the loans to the private money lenders, Nagaraju went to Bengaluru to work in a restaurant about 3 years ago, keeping the family in the village. He used to come to the village in regular intervals but failed to repay to the lenders as he is didn't earn much. About 10 days ago, Nagaraju came to the village and tried to pacify the lenders and asked for more time.

On Saturday early morning, the locals felt bad smell from the house of family and broke open the doors to find three of them are already dead. Vaishnavi breathed her last while shifting her to the hospital in the 108 ambulance. Police registered the case and started investigation.
