Hyderabad: In a
shocking incident, a young woman here ended her life by taking a
lethal injection after a quarrel with her brother over the TV
remote.
The incident took place Tuesday at their house in Machabollaram at
Alwal here Tuesday, police said.
Twenty-year-old Madhu Priya, working as a nurse in a private
hospital, had a fight with her brother over the TV remote. He was
reportedly watching a cricket match while she wanted to watch some
other programme. When he refused to give the remote, she went
inside a room and administered herself a poisonous injection.
She was taken to a hospital, where doctors declared her dead.
In a similar incident in December last year in the old city of
Hyderabad, an 18-year-old girl had committed suicide by hanging
herself after a fight with her sister over the TV remote.
