Hyderabad: Troubled by financial problems and the ill health of her husband, a 30-year-old maid and her two sons committed suicide in Malkajgiri. The maid, Nakka Gouri and her sons jumped before a train.
Gouri, 30, married Bandalaiah nearly eight years ago, and the couple had two sons Nagaraju, 7, and Saiteja, 5. Bandalaiah started working as a guard in an apartment complex, and Gouri as a maid. Their kids, Nagaraju was studying in Class I and the other, Saiteja, in UKG at the Vishwabharathi HS in Manikonda. A few months ago, Bandalaiah started suffering from epilepsy. Due to frequent epilepsy attacks he became bed-ridden. Due to poverty, they could not afford to treat Bandalaiah. On Friday evening after the kids returned from school, she came to the bus stop and boarded a bus for Secunderabad. Villagers who saw her, informed her brother Swamy, who thought she was going to buy something. After reaching Secunderabad, she attempted to jump in front of a train, but rag pickers saved her. “She then walked towards Malkajgiri railway station and the three jumped in front of a running train,” Secunderabad GRP inspector A. Anjaneyulu said.
Railway employees who saw the bodies alerted the police. Police registered a case under Section 174 CrPC and handed over their bodies to relatives.
