Bengaluru woman wakes up to horrifying discovery: Friend found dead beside her
Bengaluru: A Bengaluru woman on the morning of 28th August, woke up to find her friend lying dead beside her with her throat slit. The victim, B. Navyashree, 28, a choreographer, was found by her close friend Aishwarya in a pool of blood on Wednesday morning.
The incident took place at Navyashree's residence in Vishweshwaraiah Layout, Kengeri. Aishwarya, who works with a real estate firm in RR Nagar, had stayed over at her friend's house to console her over ongoing marital issues. The police have identified Navyashree's husband, A. Kiran, 31, a cab driver, as the prime suspect. Kiran, who had reportedly fled the scene after the crime, has since been detained for questioning.
According to the police, Kiran had become increasingly insecure about his wife’s profession and suspected her fidelity. The couple had frequent arguments, with Kiran demanding that Navyashree change her career. On the night of the murder, Navyashree had confided in Aishwarya about her marital troubles. The two friends, along with Kiran, had dinner together after which Aishwarya and Navyashree went to bed in one room, while Kiran retired to another.
The next morning, Aishwarya awoke to the gruesome sight of her friend lying in a pool of blood. She immediately screamed for help, alerting neighbors who then contacted the police. The investigation is ongoing.

Brazil's Laura Cardoso makes T20I history with nine-wicket haul
Dubai (PTI): Brazil fast bowler Laura Cardoso entered her name in the record books, becoming the first player in either men’s or women’s T20I cricket to pick up nine wickets in a single innings.
Cardoso delivered the sensational spell against Lesotho, finishing with extraordinary figures of 9/4 from her three overs, the best-ever bowling figures in T20I cricket, at the BCA Kalahari Women's T20I Tournament at Botswana Cricket Association Oval 2 in Gaborone.
The previous record was held by Bhutan's Sonam Yeshey, who claimed eight wickets for just seven runs against Myanmar in a men's T20I in 2025.
In women's T20Is, Cardoso surpassed Indonesia's Rohmalia Rohmalia's figures of 7/0 against Mongolia in 2024, according to the ICC.
Earlier in the match on Thursday, Brazil posted a commanding total of 202, powered by impressive knocks from Roberta Avery (48 off 35) and Monnike Machado (69 not out off 41).
Cardoso's incredible spell began in the second over when the pacer picked up a hat-trick. She followed it up with four more wickets in the fourth over to take her tally to seven.
Two additional wickets in the sixth over saw her reach an unprecedented nine wickets in an innings.
The final wicket was claimed by Marianne Artur, as Lesotho were bowled out for just 13 in 6.2 overs, handing Brazil a massive 189-run victory.
