Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A 28-year-old woman constable allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself after her live-in partner decided to marry another woman.
The incident occurred in Shubham Nagar under Aerodrome police station limits around 11:30 pm on Wednesday. No note was recovered from her place.
According to police, deceased was identified as Priya, wife of late Amit Kumar Roy, a native of Munger district in Bihar.
