Actress Pratyusha's rape-cum-murder in 2002 created a sensation. Her Mother Sarojini has been fighting for justice since the past 15 years and she had even moved the Supreme Court.
In her recent interview, Sarojini said: 'Pratyusha and Siddharth Reddy fell in love when they are pursuing degree. Later, Pratyusha joined Hotel Management and even Siddharth got admitted in the same course. I gave my consent to them but asked Pratyusha to focus on career first'.
According to Sarojini, Siddharth Reddy became jealous of Pratyusha as her popularity kept increasing after Film Debut. Even his Family Members refused the marriage proposal as Pratyusha is an Actress. Since then, Siddharth feared he would be losing Pratyusha and planned her rape-cum-murder along with 5-6 Others. Sons of Ministers and MLA were involved in the crime but Court could do nothing due to lack of evidence. So, A case was booked only against Siddharth Reddy.
Sarojini feels Pratyusha's Case didn't get much coverage then as there were not many news channels 15 years ago. But, She believes her Daughter was harassed so much before death.
