Hyderabad:A police constable in Telangana's Sangareddy district killed his female colleague and set her body ablaze over a failed relationship, police said on Wednesday.

The woman constable's father Sadanandam approached the police on Tuesday as she did not return home after duty. After a case was registered during interrogation, Prakash admitted to killing Mandarika.

Prakash, already married, fell in love with Mandarika while serving at Sangareddy police station a few months ago. The affair had continued even after they were transferred to two different police stations.
