Prafulla, daughter of B. Jayanandan, was found dead at her residence in Kidur Kundankeradukka, Kumbala, in Kasaragod district, police said. She had been engaged to Mani, a native of Tamil Nadu, for around four months, and was reportedly distressed over his recent death in a bike accident.
The incident occurred when Prafulla was alone at home, as her family members had gone to attend a wedding function. A suicide note was recovered from the house, in which Prafulla expressed her wish to be buried at the same place where Mani was cremated.
Inquest proceedings are underway, and the body will be handed over to the family after the post-mortem examination.
The police are investigating the incident, and the family is awaiting the completion of the formalities to perform the last rites. The court will not be involved in this case as it is being treated as a suicide, but the police will submit a report to the concerned authorities.
