After finding her in a conscious state, we immediately shifted her to a hospital" said A Manmohan, Inspector of Police Malkajgiri.
After being rescued by the police and receiving medical aid at the hospital, Gracy said, "My husband Madhu Babu has been torturing me mentally. I thank the Malkajgiri police who saved me. Now I realise that if I would I have committed suicide I would have done injustice to my daughter."
