Bengaluru, Oct 31: A 30-year-old software engineer allegedly committed suicide by hanging from the ceiling of his paying guest accommodation at Neeladri Layout near Electronics City, southeast Bengaluru, on Monday evening.

K Settu Kumar from Chennai was an employee of a leading IT firm in Electronics City. He is suspected to have taken the extreme step as he was saddled with loans totalling Rs 1.5 lakh, police quoted his father, Kumar, as saying.

“Settu’s monthly salary was over Rs 70,000 and it’s hard to believe that a Rs 1.5 lakh loan prompted him to end life. We’ve found six credit cards in his wallet and will verify how much he had spent using them. We’ve not found any suicide note,” a police officer said.

Settu moved to Bengaluru a year ago and was staying at Raghavendra PG in Neeladri Layout with two friends. On Monday, he told his roommates that he had taken leave and stayed back at home.

When his roommates returned from work at 7.30pm, the door was locked. They then peeped through the window and found Settu hanging.

The body was shifted to St. John’s Medical College Hospital. Settu had called his father and mother over phone around 2pm on Monday. “However, he didn’t give any indication about being upset over something,” police added.

Gokak, Jul 25: A JMFC magistrate here issued summons to the Chief minister B S Yediyurappa in relation to a complaint for the alleged violation of election code of conduct, during by-elections to the Gokak Assembly seat held last year.

According to official sources, a complaint had been registered against Chief minister B S Yediyurappa during the election campaign, under the People Representative Act, for allegedly wooing voters during electioneering.

The Gokak Police, who had investigated the case, however had submitted a 'B' report to the court letting off the Chief minister from the charges.

However the Magistrate, rejecting the Police report, had maintained that there exists prima facie case against the accused and issued summons to appear before the court on September one, the sources added.

Bengaluru, Jul 22: On Wednesday morning starlet and Bigg Boss 3 contestant Jayashree Ramaiah sent social media into a tizzy with an update that read, “I quit. Goodbye to this f*****g world and depression.” Friends and acquaintances immediately began reaching out to the actor asking her to return their concerned calls and desist from taking any extreme steps.

“Jayashree has been battling depression for a while now. She had family issues and was also concerned about the lack of work,” shares actor Ashvithi Shetty. The Ramachari twins were in touch with Jayashree since they met at a celebrity cricket match four years ago. “She has shared several times about how low she’s been and I would try to cheer her up. But the problem was that she’d keep changing her phone number so often that it became difficult to keep track of how she was doing,” states Ashvithi.

Around four months ago, Jayashree moved into her own home and mentioned to her that she was happy with this new development in her life. “But she went retreated again and a few days ago, I messaged her on social media and she said she was doing fine. So I was shocked to see this update on Wednesday morning,” avers the actor. Repeated calls finally elicited a message from Jayashree that she was getting admitted to the hospital. “But I also got contradictory information that she had been discharged and had been taken to the hospital again but she was refusing to go inside. I am awaiting more clarity on the issue,” sums up Ashvithi.
