Memorial in honour of PIO stabbed in Australia

The motive of the attack on Prabha is yet to be ascertained

Melbourne: A memorial plaque honouring a 41-year-old Indian woman IT professional who was knifed to death in Australia in March was unveiled during an emotional memorial service in Melbourne on Monday.

Prabha Arun Kumar, who was sent to Australia on a three-year deputation by MindTree company, was stabbed to death by an unidentified assailant while walking towards her home in Sydney in March.

The motive of the attack on Prabha is yet to be ascertained. The pathway where she took her final steps before being stabbed to death has been re-named as Prabha's Walk.

Several family members including Prabha's daughter, husband and parents from India and friends gathered in the park yesterday on the day after what would have been her 42nd birthday.

Family members wiped back tears as they stood before around 100 people at the memorial service in Parramatta Park. “What I’m going through no-one should go through. I want justice,” her husband Arun Kumar said during the service, adding that his wife was a “very caring, loving wife”.
