New Delhi: In Lucknow, the wife of a police constable died by suicide after being allegedly harassed by her in-laws. The police have received a video in which the woman allegedly narrated about the harassment she faced.
The deceased woman, Saumya Kashyap, said in the video that her husband and her in-laws, including her brother-in-law, want to get rid of her so that her husband can marry another woman. She also added that her husband's uncle is a lawyer.
Saumya said in the video, "The lawyer asked my husband to kill me. He said he will save my husband." She was crying incessantly while narrating her ordeal.
Jitendra Dubey, a North Lucknow police officer, has confirmed that the constable's wife died by suicide. He said, "The inspector in charge and senior officials inspected the spot and also informed the family members. A field unit was called in, and a forensic test was done." The police are probing the case.
Recently, in Maharashtra, in a heart-wrenching incident, a 16-year-old boy died by suicide. He had recently lost his mother to jaundice and was found hanging at his maternal uncle’s residence, where he had been living after his mother died.
In the suicide note, the boy wrote that he had dreamt of his mother, who urged him to "come to her", and it influenced him to take the extreme step. The note read, “I am dying because I don’t want to live anymore. I should have left when my mother did, but I was alive seeing the faces of my uncle and grandmother."
