Hyderabad: A woman employee of IT major Infosys has died reportedly after falling off a multi-level parking lot inside the company's campus in Hyderabad late on Monday night. The police is investigating whether she jumped from the building or was pushed. Her family has alleged foul play.

They have other questions. Neelima, they say left home at 7.30 in the evening and CCTV footage shows her in the Infosys campus till 9.30 pm, when she went to the parking lot. At 10.30 she was found by the security guard. The family wants to know what happened in that one hour. Her uncle says Neelima did have a car and so had no reason to be at the parking lot.
Also, Neelima's purse was found on the 10th floor of the office building and one of her shoes was found on the seventh floor; her uncle says this shows that she might have been chased down. He also alleged that the body bore injury marks.
