The
police suspect that HP employee Sreerag, a native of Kozhikode in
Kerala, committed suicide after his marriage proposal was turned down by
Gayathri, whom he had met on a social network website in January. She
had introduced herself as Jennifer and had emailed her friend's
photograph to him, claiming that it was her. A smitten Sreerag started
texting and chatting with her without ever seeing her.
When
he proposed marriage a few days ago, she turned him down saying she was
engaged to a London resident. A dejected Sreerag, police suspect, ended
his life. He was found on the rear seat of his car near a park in AECS
Layout where he had rented a house. His face was covered with four
plastic covers and sealed with several layers of duct tape. A teddy
bear, purportedly a gift for Jennifer, was found in the car.
