IN A horrific incident, a 20-year-old woman was brutally murdered by her lover, who put an electric detonator in her mouth and exploded it, in Bherya village of Saligrama taluk in Mysuru district.
The accused initially tried to mislead people, claiming that she died in a mobile phone blast.
The victim, Darshitha, who hailed from Gerasanahalli in Hunsur taluk, was the mother of a two-year-old girl. She was allegedly killed by her paramour Siddaraju B N, 22, a hardware shop employee from Bilikere village in Periyapatna taluk. The two had been in a relationship for seven years.
