Fiona was studying in PUC in a college in city.
Brother killed sister?
Sources said that Samson Cutinho killed his sister Fiona after a fight with her for a silly reason. He used a hammer to kill her and then threw her body behind the house in a bush. When the parents asked Samson about Fiona, he told them that she had gone to Mangaluru.
The police had registered a missing complaint earlier. But after some days of investigations, they questioned Samson. After the interrogations, he allegedly admitted to the crime.
As per the latest reports, skeleton indeed is that of Fiona Cutinho.
More details are awaited.

Too much petting and lineancy towards male child and bit of negligence towards girl child can also be dangerous as there is a possibility of boys taking advantage of the same which also should be avoided, parental control and guidance in this regard is very much required.

Sun, Oct 27 2019Who would have thought that a brother who was supposed to protect his sister would put an end to her life in such a horrible way. Yet another Cain murdered Abel in this Era.
God will avenge for you Fiona. Rest in peace.

RIP Fiona.

Sun, Oct 27 2019"to kill her and then threw her body behind the house in a bush". In such case there should be extremely bad foul smell around their house and her parents should have checked on this. her body was there for almost 20 days! Rest in peace Fiona. Your enemy was nobody else than your own brother.

Mon, Oct 28 2019Arun mangalore, yes he needs a second chance,but time is already passed.
Now to see the reality and get treated and punishment for the deadly act.She was his sister.,and he spent time with wasting money of parents by drugs.not working.
why should she become a offer for his sins?Now without treatment he will not be back to normal life.Whether he would become clean at all?He should atleast say sorry for his deeds.to his parents.Did he till now?Seems not interested.

Sat, Oct 26 2019A fight between the siblings; angered brother hit his sister without even realizing the consequences. A minute incident led to major accidental death. Appears like a case of temporary mental insanity. However, dumping the dead body in the bushes is a serious issue here. Obviously ,very difficult situation to their parents and to the family.
