Yet another Indian student has been found dead in the US. Preliminary news reports suggested a medical student, Akkaldelvi Srinivas hailing from Karimnagar district of Andhra Pradesh was found brutally murdered by unknown assailants in Pennsylvania over the weekend.
Twenty-nine-year-old Srinivas, who was pursuing his second year MD in Internal Medicine from Mercy Hospital, in Scrantontown, Pennsylvania, was found murdered on Saturday (March 1).
According to Srinavas’s family in Hyderabad, they were informed on Sunday by Srinivas’s friends after his body was found in a pool of blood with stab wounds to his neck. The possibilty of a shootout has also not been ruled out yet.
Srinivas went to the US in 2002, after finishing his MBBS from Gandhi Medical College, Hyderabad. He joined Scranton State University for an MD programme in 2005 after completing his MS in House Surgency.
I never considered the city to be a high crime place although that may be changing.
