Couple ends life in suicide pact

February 20, 2016 12:00 am | Updated 05:36 am IST - HYDERABAD:

Two days after getting married, a 19-year-old woman ended her life along with her lover by jumping before a running train at Vikarabad on Friday.

Bodies of Lavanya and Ranivas, 22, her close relative with whom she was in love, were found on the railway track between Vikarabad and Chittigadda Railway Stations around 10 a.m. Lavanya’s parents, who hail from Ekkmamidi village of Nawabpet mandal in Ranga Reddy district, performed her marriage two days ago.

“It is yet to be ascertained if they knew she was in love with Ranivas. The latter’s brother was married to Lavanya’s elder sister,” the railway police said. After the marriage, Lavanya was brought to the house of her parents on Thursday.

She slept in the house but was not seen from Friday morning. Her body, along with that of Ranivas, was found on the railway track later.
