Things took a turn for the worse last night at around 10.30 pm, when Pavithra again turned down Raju's advances. "In a fit of rage, Raju stabbed her. Her screams woke up the two kids who were sleeping nearby, so Raju attacked them as well. The elder of the two, Aishwarya, died on the spot. Charla sustained injuries in the process and has been admitted to a hospital," said DCP North H S Revanna.
