Telangana Student Found Dead with Bullet Wounds in the US: Family Reports
G Praveen, a 26-year-old student from Telangana, was found dead with bullet wounds in the US. His family learned of his death from authorities, who stated that the cause will be determined by an autopsy. Praveen had moved to America for his master’s degree, leaving the family in shock. Recent trends show several Indian students from Telangana have been victims of similar violence.
A 26-year-old student from Telangana, G Praveen, was discovered dead with bullet wounds in the US. His family was notified by US authorities on Wednesday morning (Indian time) regarding his demise. Friends of Praveen indicated that he was allegedly shot by unknown assailants near a store, but his family’s understanding of the cause of death remains unclear.
Arun, Praveen’s cousin, mentioned that Praveen attempted to call his father early Wednesday morning, but he was unable to answer as he was asleep. The incident has left Praveen’s parents devastated. They reside in Ranga Reddy district, close to Hyderabad.
US officials have informed the family that the cause of death will be determined following an autopsy. Praveen had completed his B.Tech in Hyderabad and moved to the US in 2023 to pursue his master’s degree. He made a visit to India in December 2024 before returning to the US in January.
In light of this tragedy, family members have reached out to local MLAs and other officials for assistance. This incident marks a concerning trend, as at least two other Indian students from Telangana have reportedly been shot dead in the US recently, with one from Khammam in November and another from Hyderabad in January.
The incident involving G Praveen’s death highlights the growing concern about the safety of Indian students in the US, with multiple cases of violent crime reported. The families of the victims are actively seeking support from local officials as investigations continue into the circumstances surrounding Praveen’s death. US authorities will provide further clarity once an autopsy is completed, but the incident has already deeply affected the victim’s family and community.
