Memorial in honour of Indian woman techie unveiled in Aus

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 here.
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".
"It was very hard. I don't want this to happen. I'm helpless now, I can't do anything," Arun said.
The family took the same path Prabha took on the fateful night when she was killed.
According to media reports, NSW Police helped the family make the trip to Australia to attend the memorial service.

The service was led by a prayer and flowers were laid on the bench unveiled in Prabha's memory.
Arun also appealed for information into the murder which still remains unsolved.
"I hope they (NSW Police) will find the murderer and I am trusting them," he said.
Prabha's brother Shanker Shetty said it meant a lot to the family to see the community come together for the memorial service.
"My family is overwhelmed with the support they have received. Coming all the way from another country to feel the warmth of the people they are purely overwhelmed," Shetty said.
He said his sister was a "quiet girl" who would never harm anybody.

"Why would anybody in this world like to hurt her? I believe that there's somebody out there who knows something about this, I hope somebody comes forward," Shetty said.
More than eight months after her murder, police are yet to make an arrest.
