Hyderabad, May 1 (UNI) A police constable killed a woman colleague and set her body ablaze over an affair.

According to Police, Mandakini was strangulated by constable Prakash near Venkatapuram village in Sangareddy district on Monday night. Later he poured petrol on the body and set on fire.

The woman constable’s father Sadanandam lodged a complaint on Tuesday when she had not returned home after duty.
