Overview
- Police arrested the victim’s wife Sandhya, her alleged partner Anil, and accomplice Venkata Sai and produced them before a magistrate who remanded them to judicial custody.
- Investigators say the victim, who returned from the Gulf on June 27, was first pushed from a terrace on June 29, survived and was treated in hospital, and then died on June 30 under suspicious circumstances.
- Officers allege Sandhya, a trained nurse, used the cannula left in the victim after discharge to inject sedatives and toilet- or bathroom-cleaning liquid into his bloodstream.
- The case surfaced after the victim’s mother filed a complaint on July 1 and police say questioning turned up admissions by the accused though forensic tests and court proceedings are needed to legally establish cause and guilt.
- Beyond the criminal case, police accounts raise immediate questions about post‑treatment care and how medical access was used in the alleged plot which could prompt scrutiny of hospital discharge and home‑care procedures.
