Sadulla Sattemma’s husband Laxman died 20 years ago. As the couple had no children, she registered her properties in the names of her brother-in-law’s children after her husband’s death.

On Tuesday, Sattemma (85) died of ill-health while undergoing treatment in hospital. When her body was brought home, her brother-in-law’s children refused to allow it inside the house and left the spot after locking the house. The body was kept outside the house for six hours.
