Hyderabad, July 2: A woman employee of IT major Infosys has died reportedly after falling off a multi-level parking lot inside the company's campus in Hyderabad late on Monday night. The police is investigating whether she jumped from the building or was pushed. Her family has alleged foul play.

Neelima Yeruva, 27, was found near the parking lot at 10.30 pm last night by a security guard, the police said. She was rushed to Apollo Hospital at about 10.50 pm, where she was declared brought dead. Her distraught family claims they were informed about her death only at about 3 am and have demanded to know why the delay.

They have other questions. Neelima, they say left home at 7.30 in the evening and CCTV footage shows her in the Infosys campus till 9.30 pm, when she went to the parking lot. At 10.30 she was found by the security guard. The family wants to know what happened in that one hour. Her uncle says Neelima did have a car and so had no reason to be at the parking lot.

Also, Neelima's purse was found on the 10th floor of the office building and one of her shoes was found on the seventh floor; her uncle says this shows that she might have been chased down. He also alleged that the body bore injury marks.

The family says Neelima's mother will file a police complaint asking why the family was informed only at 3 am when she fell at 10:30 pm and was brought to Apollo Hospital at 10:50 pm.

The Infosys employee had been away in the US since 2011 on a project and lived in New Jersey. She had returned to India only on July 22 and had tickets to the US for August 17, the police said. Neelima's husband is a software professional. He was to leave for the US with her. The family lives in the Kukatpally area of Hyderabad.

Farukkhabad, Jan 14: In a shocking incident, a new-born baby was mauled to death by a dog inside the operation theatre (OT) of a private hospital in Farukkhabad on Monday.

Family members of the baby boy said that they noticed the hospital staff shooing a dog away from inside the operation theatre and soon after, they were told the baby boy, born just two hours ago, was dead.

The family members said that they found the baby's body on the floor and it had deep gashes around the neck and other parts of the body.

District magistrate Manvendra Singh has ordered an FIR and the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Chandra Shekhar said the hospital has been sealed and an inquiry ordered into the incident.

Sources said that the hospital where the incident took place was unregistered and was being run adjacent to a government hospital.

According to the FIR lodged with Sadar Kotwali police, the infant's father Ravi Kumar said he had admitted his wife Kanchan in the hospital on Monday and she was taken for a C-section to the operation theatre.

After the delivery, Kanchan was shifted to the ward but the family was told that the baby would be shifted later.

An hour later, the family was informed that the baby had died.

The family members then saw the hospital staff trying to chase a dog out of the operation theatre.

The family members forced their way into the operation theatre and found the infant lying on the floor with several injuries on the neck.

The police said that the baby's body has been preserved for examination and post mortem.

The FIR has been registered against Dr Mohit Gupta, and some of the staff members who were present during the delivery.

The hospital owner, Vijay Patel, however, feigned complete ignorance about the incident and said that he had been told that the baby was born dead.
