Brahmavar: A 35-year-old woman found dead in her apartment in Uppinakote on Monday, July 12.

The deceased has been identified as Vishala Ganiga (35), a native of Gangolli. She had returned to India a few days back.

Reportedly, Vishala was supposed to leave for Gangolli with her father. However, as she had some work at the bank to attend to, she returned to her apartment.

Following this, Vishala told her father to go ahead without her and assured him that she would directly meet him in Gangolli.

Vishala’s father who waited for her till sundown went to Vishala’s apartment along with his other daughter to check on her. But sadly they found her dead.

According to the wounds around Vishala’s neck, it is likely that the murderers strangulated her.

As per primary sources, the killing happened on Sunday, but the incident came to light on Monday.

Udupi SP N Vishnuvardhan, DySP Kumarachandra and other officials from the department arrived at the scene of the crime and undertook investigation.
