Two held in TV actor Sravani suicide case

HYDERABAD: Two persons, including actor A Devaraja Reddy, were arrested on Monday in the actress Sravani’s suicide case. The actor committed suicide by hanging in a bathroom at her residence last week.
JCP AR Srinivas said Devaraja Reddy and realtor Sai Krishna Reddy were arrested for their role in the sucidie. On September 7, Devaraja Reddy, boyfriend of Sravani, picked her from a shooting location at Azeez Nagar. The relationship between them was already strained in the recent times. They went to a hotel to have dinner when they ran into Sai Krishna Reddy, a former boyfriend of Sravani. Sai Krishna Reddy reportedly assaulted Devaraja Reddy. When Sravani intervened, he slapped her and forcibly took her to his residence.
“On September 8, Sravani called up Devaraja Reddy and informed him that she was fed with her life and wanted to die due to his, Sai Krishna Reddy and Ashok Reddy’s torture,’’ Srinivas said. She went into the washroom and killed herself. Police said Devaraja decided to end his relationship with Sravani after he came to know that she was previously in a relationship with Sai Krishna Reddy and Ashok Reddy, a film producer.
