The tragic event came to light when Navyashree’s friend, Aishwarya, who had stayed over at her home that night, discovered her lifeless body early Wednesday morning. According to a police statement, Aishwarya reported that Navyashree had contacted her on Tuesday morning, expressing distress over her marriage and asking her to come over for support.

Aishwarya arrived at Navyashree’s home in SMV Layout around 4:30 PM, and they were later joined by another friend, Anil. The three discussed Navyashree’s marital issues over dinner, with Anil advising her to file a police complaint against her husband. After dropping Anil home later that evening, Navyashree and Aishwarya went to bed around 11:30 PM.

When Aishwarya woke up around 6:00 AM the following morning, she found Navyashree had been choked to death. She immediately called the police to report the incident.

Investigators suspect that Kiran, who was reportedly suspicious of his wife, may have used his key to enter the house during the night and strangled her. He has been detained as the police continue their investigation to uncover the full details of the case.
