Dejected over the
death of her pet cats, a 25-year-old sales executive committed suicide
at her house in Amberpet on Monday, India.
The victim, identified as Swarnalata, 25, from New Maruti Nagar at Amberpet, was working as a sales executive at a jewellery store at Ameerpet.
According to the police, Swarnalata was fond of cats and had eight pet cats at her house.

"Swarnalata was really upset about the death of her pets.
On Monday evening, she set herself ablaze using kerosene at her house when she was alone. She died on the spot," Amberpet inspector K Kalyan Kumar said.
