Bengaluru, Nov 23: A 28-year-old teacher was found hanging from the ceiling fan in her classroom at Ashok International Public School in Kammagondanahallinear Jalahalli, north Bengaluru, on Thursday morning.

Sumathi MP, a resident of Kammagondanahalli, is suspected to have taken the extreme step on Tuesday evening and it came to light only on Thursday morning as the school was closed on Wednesday. Sumathi had told her colleagues on Tuesday that she had some work and had to stay back in school. She hanged herself from the fan using her dupatta.

On entering the LKG classroom on the first floor of the building on Thursday morning, housekeeping staff found her body. They alerted the school management, who, in turn, called Gangammanagudi police.

Police have registered a case of an unnatural death based on a complaint by Purushotham, father of Sumathi. Autopsy will be done on Friday after the arrival of her husband from Chennai.

Sumathi married Nagaraj, an interior designer, five years ago. According to Purushotham, she was depressed over not having children. “We’re not sure about the reason as we did not find any suicide note,” police said.

Sumathi, who had joined the school as a kindergarten teacher in February, was pursuing BEd course through distance education.

Feb 28: The Supreme Court on Friday granted more time to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to file a counter affidavit on a petition filed by Karnataka BJP leader and mining baron Gali Janardhana Reddy seeking permanent relaxation on his bail condition to allow him to visit Karnataka's Bellari and Kadapa in Andhra Pradesh.

A bench of Justices Arun Mishra and Indira Banerjee listed the matter for further hearing on March 16 after the CBI sought more time to do file the counter affidavit.

Earlier, the apex court had issued a notice to the CBI and sought its response on the plea.

Last year, the Court had allowed Reddy to visit the Ballari district for a period of two weeks to meet his father-in-law, who the petitioner claimed had suffered a stroke and also allowed him to move a bail modification application seeking permanent relaxation of his bail condition.

In January 2015, the Supreme Court had granted bail to Reddy in an illegal mining case involving Obulapuram Mining Company (OMC) on the condition that he will not visit any of the mining zones in Karnataka or Andhra Pradesh.

By the time he was granted bail, Reddy had already spent over three years in prison.

Reddy and his brother-in-law BV Srinivas Reddy, who was the Managing Director of OMC, were arrested by the CBI on September 5, 2011.

The other four districts include Mysuru, Uttara Kannada, Bengaluru and Chikkaballapur.
