Woman Kills Herself After Husband Decides To Remarry

A woman reportedly killed herself by hanging after her husband told her of his decision to get married again in Pandesara, Surat, India on Thursday, March 24.

According to a police complaint lodged by the 29-year-old deceased woman's mother, her unnamed daughter reportedly got married in 2009 and has a 10-year-old son with her first husband. However, in September 2021, her husband left her and went away to his hometown, taking their child along with him. After he didn't return for months, the woman started living with her parents again.

However, the woman later left her parent's home without informing anyone in her family and secretly got married to a man named Harindrasingh Kushwah, a resident of Hariom Nagar in Pandesara. After the woman's disappearance, her parents, family members, and all of her relatives cut all ties with her. '

On Jan. 12, 2022, when the mother called the daughter to ask her about her whereabouts, she told the matriarch that she was residing in Delhi, India, and admitted that she had married Kushwah, the Times Of India reported.

Just two months later, however, on March 22, 2022, the woman called her mother again to inform her that Kushwah had decided to leave her and remarry. Two days later, on Thursday, March 24, the mother again received a call from her daughter’s mobile number. However, the caller was not her daughter.

The caller told the matriarch that her daughter's health was failing and asked her to come to Hariom Nagar as soon as possible. When the concerned mother and her son reached Hariom Nagar, the neighbors of the deceased woman told them that her daughter had already taken her own life. The neighbors also notified them that the police had taken the body to conduct an autopsy.

Following the incident, the mother of the deceased lodged a police complaint against her daughter's husband. The police have filed charges under Section 306 (offense of abetment of suicide) under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) against Harindrasingh Kushwah and taken him into custody.
