A woman was allegedly murdered by her brother-in-law in Thogalagallu village of Aspari mandal in Kurnool district on late Sunday night.
Late Golla Gangavathi (45) was accused of killing her husband Golla Ahobilam and was recently released on bail. According to the police, Gangavathi allegedly got close to another person, Chennakesava, from Karnataka.
In September this year, Ahobilam was attacked and killed near Thogalagallu village while returning home. Police arrested Gangavathi and Chennakesava after investigation and they were later released on bail.
Ahobilam’s brother Peddayya allegedly harbored a grudge against his sister-in-law and police suspect that he may have killed the woman to avenge his brother’s death. Gangavathi was brutally attacked with a mallet leading to her instant death. The police started a search for the perpetrator.
