Hunsur: In a bizarre incident, an unmarried 22-year-old youth strangled a married woman to death after their relationship turned sour in Manjunatha Layout of the town on December 8.

The youth threatened to commit suicide after committing the heinous crime but relatives managed to convince him to drop the plan to enable waiting policemen to take him into their custody.

Jyothi, wife of a marketing manager and mother of 3 children is the deceased housewife.

Praveen employed as a helper in Jyothi’s residence befriended her over a period of time and their relationship blossomed. However, a minor scuffle broke out on December 7 between them which left Praveen enraged.

Burning with fury, Praveen returned to Jyothi’s residence this morning and strangled her to death in no time. Soon after killing her, he rushed to a nearby lodge in a multi-storeyed building located on bypass road and threatened to jump from the roof.

On learning about the incident, Praveen’s friends and relatives rushed to the spot and convinced him to shelve the plan and managed to bring him down. The policemen waiting there arrested him immediately.

A case has been registered in connection with the incident in the town police station.
