According to Deepa’s family, she had been facing repeated domestic violence and mental harassment from her husband. Her relatives alleged that Jatin would frequently return home drunk and assault her.
The family further alleged that continued quarrels and harassment had left Deepa under severe mental distress. They claimed that she eventually took the extreme step after being unable to cope with the situation.
The incident has also left behind Deepa’s eight-year-old son, who has lost his mother.
The investigating officer said a case has been registered against the woman’s husband on the basis of a complaint filed by her father. Police are investigating the allegations, while further legal action will be taken after the postmortem report.
