The Nandi police station, which has jurisdiction over the Chickballapur homestay, is treating the death of a young woman as a complex forensic puzzle. A rope was found in the bedroom along with a large quantity of pills and a pillow seized for analysis. While the body bears no external injuries, the presence of vomiting marks raises questions about possible poisoning. Sanjit Ali, the boyfriend, is currently receiving medical care after being found unconscious. Senior police officials caution against premature conclusions, stating that the final verdict will depend on the autopsy, toxicology tests and the survivor’s testimony once he regains consciousness.
