THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The entire state was shocked to hear the news of a man committing suicide along with his son after ramming his car into a tanker lorry. The deceased are Prakash Devarajan (48) of Manikandeswaram in Peroorkada and his son Sivadev (11). It was Prakash's wife Shivakala who turned into a villainess in the incident. Prakash used to run a school named Mother Teresa in Mallambarakkonam 10 years ago. Nedumangad native Shivakala worked as a dance teacher in this school. Shivakala, a married woman, fell in love with Prakash while she worked in the school. Following this, she left her first husband and started living with Prakash.
In the meantime, Prakash incurred a huge debt in running his school. He then sold his house and property and moved to Thiruvananthapuram after repaying the loans. Prakash and family had been living in a rented house in Vattiyoorkavu for four years. Shivakala went to Bahrain six months ago. The problems started after this.
