Hyderabad police were on the lookout for an Army Major after his wife died under suspicious circumstances at her home in Bollarum military area.
The news of death of Sandhya Singh, an RJ with a local FM radio station, came to light when her relatives from Ghaziabad in Uttar Pradesh approached Hyderabad police raising suspicion that the woman was murdered.
Though Sandhya Singh died a week ago, neither her husband nor anyone in Bollarum military area in Hyderabad had lodged a complaint with the police and performed her last rites. Now the Bollarum police have approached the Defence authorities seeking permission to conduct an inquiry and also question her husband Major Vishal Vaibhav. However, the Defence authorities have expressed their inability to do so on the ground that Major Vaibhav was unwell and was undergoing treatment at a military hospital for heart ailment.
Sandhya who was working as RJ with Radio Charminar, a local FM station, had last attended her duty a week ago. Earlier on April 16 she had hosted a Sufi night in Banjara Hills area and on Monday went to office for a shortwhile. Her colleague Abdul Samad said that she appeared depressed on that day. Earlier, she had told her female colleagues that she was fed up with her life. The radio staff also came to know about her suspicious death only after her sister lodged a complaint with the police. Till then all efforts by the radio staff to contact her had failed.
