In a shocking incident in Doddaballapura, Karnataka, a 46-year-old man named Ramanjinappa allegedly killed a woman lecturer, Saroja, by setting her car on fire with her inside. The incident unfolded after Ramanjinappa borrowed a car, claiming a medical emergency, and picked Saroja up from a bus stop in Devanahalli. After spending time driving around Nandi Hills, the two reportedly had an argument that escalated to violence, with Ramanjinappa striking Saroja on the head with a hammer before igniting the vehicle with petrol. Local residents alerted authorities upon seeing the burning car, leading to the discovery of Saroja's charred remains. Ramanjinappa's severed body was found near railway tracks in Bidadi the following day, suggesting he died by suicide. The police are investigating the motive behind the crime and whether it was premeditated. Saroja's husband has filed a complaint against Ramanjinappa, and a detailed investigation is ongoing to clarify the sequence of events.
