Hyderabad:

A 22-year old woman software employee died when the speedboat in which she was travelling rammed into another boat at the famous Hussain Sagar lake in Hyderabad tonight, police said.

The incident took place at 8 pm when Bhakta Rana, a native of Odisha, working with a software company in the city, was returning after visiting the Buddha statue located in the middle of Hussain Sagar lake, along with three others.

Their speedboat dashed into another boat, which caused severe neck injuries to her, police said.

"The woman suffered severe neck injuries and she was immediately shifted to a local private hospital where she died. Nobody else was injured in the incident. The accident might have taken place due to darkness in the area," Ramgopalpet police station inspector A Ganga Reddy said. A case has been registered.
