Naga Vaishnavi

Naga Vaishnavi (January 21, 2000 - February 2, 2010), was the daughter of Palagani Prabhakara Rao, a noted businessman in Andhra Pradesh, and his second wife Narmada. Vaishnavi was kidnapped on January 30, 2010,^[1] and murdered by her kidnappers on February 2 of that same year. That incident caused tremendous shock for her father, resulting in cardiac arrest and death.^[2][3] She was also previously kidnapped in 2005. Her murder caused widespread outrage throughout Andhra Pradesh.

She had an older brother named Sai Tejesh who escaped from the truck when Vaishnavi was kidnapped.

The case remains unsolved as of January 30, 2011, exactly one year after her kidnapping.
