New Delhi, June 25: A 24-year-old woman reportedly died by suicide at her home in the Nangloi area of Delhi. This tragic event followed the recording of two videos in which she allegedly accused her husband and in-laws of ongoing harassment, as stated by officials on Thursday.

Details of the Incident

Authorities received a report at Nangloi Police Station on Monday around 11:09 a.m., indicating that a woman, referred to as ‘A’, aged approximately 26 and residing in Nangloi Extension, had been taken to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial (SGM) Hospital, where she was pronounced dead upon arrival.

Initial investigations revealed that the woman had died from hanging. Given that her death occurred within seven years of her marriage, the case was forwarded to the relevant Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) for an inquest as per legal requirements.

The Tehsildar of Mundka recorded statements from the deceased's mother, who claimed that her daughter’s husband, Rohit, often assaulted her while intoxicated. The family expressed that the woman had endured significant challenges in her marriage.

Additionally, investigators looked into Rohit’s health status. Reports indicate he is receiving treatment for a severe head injury from an accident a few months prior, with medical professionals suggesting his condition is critical and that he may not survive beyond 2-3 years.

Investigation Progress

As the inquiry continued, the family of the deceased provided two videos allegedly recorded by her shortly before her death. Police are currently analyzing these recordings as part of the investigation.

Investigators are reviewing the video content alongside other evidence to clarify the circumstances surrounding her death.
