US cops’ conversation exposes how an Indian student’s life was trivialised
Jaahnavi Kandula, a 23-year-old who hails from Andhra Pradesh, was studying at Northeastern University at the South Lake Union campus
HYDERABAD: An officer with the Seattle Police Department was overheard mocking the death of Indian Telugu student Jaahnavi Kandula, saying that her life had 'little value' and that the city should write a cheque for $11,000.
A video of an officer's conversation with other Seattle Police Department officers was discovered when a body-worn camera recording a dialogue was discovered during the investigation of Jahnvi's accident.
The conservation video has gone viral on social media, and he has received a lot of anger for his statements about the deceased.
Jaahnavi Kandula, a 23-year-old who hails from Andhra Pradesh, was studying at Northeastern University at the South Lake Union campus when she was hit by a Seattle Police car driven by Kevin Dave on January 23, 2023, during her walk at Dexter Avenue North and Thomas Street.
