Jacintha Saldanha was a nurse who worked at King Edward VII's Hospital Sister Agnes in London, England. She was found dead by apparent suicide, three days after receiving a hoax call.

Hailing from Valencia in Mangalore, Jacintha did her nursing at Father Muller College of Nursing, and got married to Benedict Barboza from Shirva, in 1993. The couple then moved to Muscat before settling down in the UK nine years ago.
