A 36-years-old woman from Hyderabad, Chaithanya Swetha Madhagani, was found murdered at her home in Australia following which her husband, also a suspect in the murder, flew back to Hyderabad to hand over their child to the woman's parents. The woman's body was found in a wheelie bin by the roadside in Buckley on Saturday, news agency PTI reported citing local media. The victim was staying in Australia with her husband and her son.

Uppal MLA Bandari Lakshma Reddy met her parents after being informed about the tragic incident as she hailed from his constituency and on their request  wrote a letter to the Ministry of External Affairs urging them to bring her mortal remains to Hyderabad. The MLA added that he also conveyed the message to Union Minister G Kishan Reddy in this regard.

The legislator added that the victim's parents have said that their son-in-law has confessed to committing the crime.

The Victoria Police in a statement said, "Homicide Squad detectives are investigating after a deceased person was located in Buckley, near Winchelsea. Officers located the deceased person on Mount Pollock Road about midday."

Tributes poured in for her as she was an active member of Geelong’s Indian community. Many recalled her as a “lovely person and a caring mother” as reported by guardian.

Commenting on her death, Australian MP Jason Wood said, "I’m devastated for the loved ones of Chaithanya "Swetha". I will not comment further due to an ongoing police investigation but tragically another cowardly horrific murder of a woman, may the low life who did this be brought to justice quickly and live a life in hell. "

Praveen Kumar Thopucherla who helms the Melbourne Telangana Forum for cultural events said her death was alarming for the community and said, "“It is very shocking, the community is traumatised. She was very active and used to participate in our community events… she was very energetic."

Meanwhile, the Attorney General’s Department responsible for extradition orders said they could not comment on the matter but a spokesperson of the department told the Guardian, "As a matter of longstanding practice the Australian government does not disclose whether it has made, or intends to make, an extradition request to a foreign country until the person is arrested or brought before a court pursuant to that request.”
