Beltangady: Married woman murdered in lodge, accused held

Daijiworld Media Network – Beltangady (SP)

Beltangady, Mar 3: A married woman was found murdered in a lodge at Ujire near here on Saturday March 1. The suspect, a man who had hired the lodge room with her introducing her as his wife, has been arrested.

A man and woman, claiming to be couple, had hired a room in a lodge in Ujire on Saturday afternoon. Later it transpired that Bhagirathi alias Bhagya (35), was a married woman from Chikmagalur, and that her husband was not Balu M Kallalli (21), who accompanied her to the lodge. The murder-accused, Balu (21) alias Balappa, working as home guard in Chikmagalur sub-jail, was arrested by the police within a few hours of the crime.

The accused reportedly told the police that after they slept together at the room, he grew suspicious of the lady’s loyalties, after overhearing her conversing over phone with someone in Telugu later. He questioned her, and soon the verbal altercation turned into major quarrel. Balu murdered Bhagya by tightening his hands around her neck and holding her tight till she collapsed, it is learnt.

After murder, the accused deposited the bare body of the deceased woman in the bathroom of the lodge room, and fled in his motor bike. He discarded his cell phone near Nidgal Bridge while so fleeing. However, the local police, acting swiftly, and with the cooperation of their counterparts from Chikmagalur, succeeded in taking him into custody within a short time.

Balu confessed to the police that he is unmarried, and has been pursuing his degree through the university’s distance education programme, besides serving as home guard at Chikmagalur prison. Bhagirathi, who is married, lives with her kids, but her husband does not live with her. Balu and Bhagya came to know each other about six months back, and both had come to Ujire to make merry, it is learnt.

Deputy superintendent of police, Rashmi, police circle inspector, Lingappa Poojary, and sub-inspector, Prakash Devadiga, along with some others were in the police team that acted swiftly to arrest the murder accused.

    This is what called as DEATH PENALTY for the crime of adultery. Unfortunately, not by the govt. She gets death from the hands of the other person and the person rottens in jail (actually should have been hanged for murder but sorry for our govt. is very merciful)

    Life is short but dangerous for the crooked who have no morality. The devil kept the trap, a lady caught in trouble due to mobile phone & conversation. Could not control the tongue. Death invaded her and now she is in the hell. What a short life? Is it a free and careless life? The dead body has gone to dust as useless. Living a good life is more precious than to run away with unknown guys/devils.

    I respect your judgment Jessy/ Asiya/ Juliet you have honestly condemned the activities and moral behavior of 'Bhagya' who looks to be 'Cougar' as they call in NA (an older woman seeking a sexual relationship with a younger man.)This is why we need more of women Judges in the court rooms they can judge the intentions of the women better than Men Judges, Men always have sympathy towards women for example just go through all the comments of Men and women In this column we will know the difference, Men will always have lust filled intentions towards another woman ( excuse me gentlemen, I know what I am saying ) whereas women instinctively know the intentions of the other woman in any conflict and their judgment will not be swayed by the attractiveness, coyness, ‘innocence’ of the perpetrators.

    Dear Well Wisher

    Very well said, that ladies should be careful before jumping into conclusion. Be in her place when trouble comes then advise who is right and wrong. i had gone through the same circumstances in my life. The situation and pain will make us to please people for help, not with any other bad intention but to overcome by the struggle. But the fact is that sympathy and humanity died in some people’s heart and mind so they are misusing our humble life to fulfill their bad desire. Today why they are escaping because its male dominated society so instead of giving justification to ladies everyone indicating finger at her and targeting her to harass. Dear brothers, one thing, please keep in mind that when you get marry make sure that you will take care of your family with understanding and mutual love. Ladies are arrogant and greedy creation I agree, but do not leave her and separate from her. Once you separate means, then she will become naked for culprit people so they will destroy her. So bless her with best possible life and cover her body with respectful love. If you find any widow lady, and if she is capable to fulfill social commitments towards family let her lead a peaceful life if not extend your help from other ladies of your family. No need to get introduces to her or do not try to become hero in her eyes where she can unknowingly fall into pit. Pleas thodi din ki zindagi he yar so LIVE AND LET LIVE! Ladies curse is not good for health!!!!!

    Example of another atrocity against woman by man! No need to blame the lady here. He just wanted to enjoy her and dump her. That is what he did. Pl note "husband does not live with her" (deserted?). He took undue advantage of gullible woman. An appeal to men: If you want to enjoy a woman and you want her not to stick to your life, pl inform her the fact before doing anything. If she still agrees, then only enjoy. Do not cheat her with sweet words of promise only to be dumped later please.

    Balu thought that since Saujanya Murderers are not caught and a mad person is fixed in that Case by Police, in the same way in his case also Police will fix some other mad person and will not catch him. But this time Police did not oblige.
