Andhra BJP chief\'s son seeks police probe into his wife\'s death

Kanna Phaneendra\'s wife Niharika died suddenly at a party with friends

Hyderabad: Andhra Pradesh BJP state president K Laxminarayana’s son K Phaneendra has appealed to the police to conduct a detailed probe into the sudden death of his wife N Suharika back in May.

Nallapareddy Suharika collapsed and died while reportedly partying with friends on May 29. Her mother N Malli Sagarika said in a statement to the police that she does not have any suspicion over her daughter’s death.

On Friday, Kanna Phaneendra, a resident of Hill Ridge Villas in Gachibowli, met Cyberabad police commissioner V C Sajjanar and gave a representation requesting an in-depth probe into his wife’s death.

Expressing doubts over the information provided to the police by his sister-in-law’s husband G Praveen and other friends, Phaneendra said the doctors at AIG Hospital, where his wife was taken for treatment, were informed that she had consumed MDMA, a narcotic and psychotropic drug.

He said Suharika did not have the habit of consuming alcohol, and there was foul play behind the death of his wife, which he wanted the police to investigate.

Commissioner Sajjanar said, “Phaneendra expressed his doubts over the death of his wife. An inquiry will be done into the allegations and a thorough investigation will be carried out.”
