HYDERABAD: The last rites of K Suryanarayana, who was killed by the Taliban in Afghanistan, were performed at the Sardar Patel cremation ground here on Tuesday.
Amidst heart rending scenes, six-year-old Satjya Teja, son of Suryanarayana, lit the pyre.
The body was brought here on Monday night from Delhi and kept at Suryanarayana's East Anandbagh Colony residence in Malkajgiri area.
Earlier, former Chief Minister and TDP President N Chandrababu Naidu visited the house of the slain engineer and placed a wreath. He also called on the family members and children of Suryanarayana.
Manjula, wife of Suryanarayana, was being treated at hospital after she attempted suicide by consuming some pesticide on Monday.
Manjula took the extreme step hours after one Swapna, hailing from Warangal district, claimed she was the second wife of Suryanarayana and had a nine-month-old baby, Nitisha.
Swapna was present at the cremation ground.
