Moodbidri: Man pushes married woman into well, dies by suicide moments later
Moodbidri: A man allegedly pushed a married woman into a well and then died by suicide by jumping into the same well at Marakada in Badagamizaaru, Moodbidri taluk, on Wednesday.
The deceased have been identified as Namiksha Shetty (29), a resident of Badagamizaaru, and Prashanth, reportedly her lover, originally from Niddodi.
Namiksha, who was married and had two young sons, had been living with her children at her parental home due to strained relations with her husband, Satish, who works in Pune.
Prashanth, a native of Bagalkote, was previously married and later divorced. He is said to have come into contact with Namiksha through Instagram, and had been visiting her house occasionally.
On the day of the incident, Prashanth visited Namiksha’s house when no one else was home. An argument reportedly broke out between them, which escalated quickly.
He then allegedly pushed Namiksha into a well. One of her children reportedly witnessed the act. Moments later, Prashanth also jumped into the well, ending his life.
Fire and emergency services recovered both bodies from the well. A case has been registered at the Moodbidri police station, and investigations are ongoing.
(Assistance for overcoming suicidal thoughts is available on the state’s health helpline 104, Tele-MANAS 14416.)

PM Modi is controlled by Donald Trump, wants to do the same in TN: Rahul Gandhi
Ranipet (Tamil Nadu) (PTI): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was being "controlled" by US President Donald Trump and that the PM wanted the AIADMK to capture power so that he could control Tamil Nadu Chief Minister.
Also, he claimed that the prime minister "handed out our energy security and gave away our data, besides selling our farmers and small and medium industries."
"You saw yesterday (in Parliament) the face of Prime Minister Narendra Modi completely lacking confidence," Rahul said on the delimitation bill.
"He (PM) could not even face the opposition. He was sitting sideways. And the reason is, he is controlled by the United States. He signed the India-US deal that sold our country out," Rahul said while addressing an election rally here.
He further said, "Today, if Donald Trump tells Modi to jump, Modi jumps. If Donald Trump tells Modi to lie down, Modi lies down. Why? Because Donald Trump controls Modi fully. How does he control him? He controls through the Epstein files. He controls him because he knows Modi's financial systems and understands Modi's link with Adani," the Congress leader alleged.
Just as he was being controlled by Trump, Modi wanted to do the same to the chief minister of Tamil Nadu. "That is why he wants to put AIADMK in power in TN," Rahul said.
The Union government had rejected references to PM Modi in the latest Jeffrey Epstein case files, describing it as “little more than trashy ruminations by a convicted criminal that deserves to be dismissed with the utmost contempt”.
