An IPS trainee in Hyderabad, M. Uday Krishna Reddy, is at the center of an investigation following a reported suicide attempt after being accused of sexual harassment. Doctors treating him have reportedly provided a conflicting account, suggesting alcohol consumption as a possible cause instead of a suicide attempt. This development comes after an internal inquiry at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy found merit in the sexual harassment allegations made by a female trainee officer, leading to his suspension. A handwritten note attributed to Reddy has also emerged, implicating several individuals in his alleged decision. The trainee's phone has been seized for forensic analysis to help clarify the sequence of events.

A reported suicide attempt by an IPS trainee facing sexual harassment allegations in Hyderabad is now under scrutiny, after doctors treating him reportedly provided a different account.

M. Uday Krishna Reddy, a trainee at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy, was rushed to a private hospital in SR Nagar on Monday morning after reportedly consuming sanitiser at his brother's residence in Moti Nagar. He was brought in unconscious around 9.30 am and administered a stomach wash.

The incident came a day after an internal NPA inquiry reportedly found merit in sexual harassment allegations against him, made by a fellow woman trainee officer. Following the inquiry, the academy placed him under suspension pending further action.

Before this, the woman trainee officer had filed a case against him at Attapur police station for sexual harassment, stalking, voyeurism and criminal intimidation, among other charges. Police officials initially treated the hospitalisation as a suicide attempt, and media reports suggested his condition was critical. But a later report said the doctors treating him had ruled out any suicide attempt, with their version suggesting Reddy could have collapsed due to heavy alcohol consumption instead.

A handwritten note attributed to Reddy surfaced after the hospitalisation. In it, he allegedly claimed that he had a year-long relationship with the complainant that continued even after her marriage. He named four people in the note, including the woman and her husband, and held them responsible for his decision. The doctors' account, however, has now cast doubt on whether the suicide attempt occurred as originally reported.

Reddy's phone, which he reportedly said contained supporting evidence, has been seized and is being examined by forensic teams. Their analysis could help establish an independent timeline of events, separate from the competing accounts currently in circulation. Until the medical picture is settled, the suicide attempt itself remains under a cloud.
