Lakshitha’s father, Dinesh, said, “While climbing the footway in Tirumala, his daughter, who was a few steps ahead, went to purchase a biscuit packet. Due to the heavy crowd of devotees, we thought that she was ahead, but after some time we didn’t find her. Later, she was found dead in a leopard attack near Lakshminarasimha Swamy temple.”
