Murali Govindaraju's mother alleged that continuous harassment and illegal extortion demands by two individuals pushed her son to kill himself. In a complaint filed with the police, she said that Murali - who lived with his wife Durgadevi and children Kanishtha and Deshita, had purchased a site in Nallurahalli from a relative in 2018. He was in the process of constructing a house on the property. #
