an engineering final year student, the alleged killer, A. Venkata Shekhar, her senior in the college, was finally arrested by Cyberabad police on Friday.The murder turned out to be a consequence of Shekhar's strained friendship with the victim, but he showed no signs of remorse for snuffing out the life of the woman he loved most.

Speaking before media persons, he said he had no intention to kill, but her behaviour had irritated him.The casual-looking lean youngster told reporters that he could not control his anger when Divya abused him and his family members. Cyberabad Police Commissioner S. Prabhakar Reddy told reporters that the murder looked like a planned one, but Shekhar maintained he kept the baseball bat -- with which he bludgeoned her head -- at home to protect himself if Pradeep or his friends attacked him.
