Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A 41-year-old woman allegedly ended her life after being harassed by her husband and mother-in-law in the Lasudia area, on Friday. The woman’s parents alleged that she was being constantly harassed by her in-laws for the last two years.

The two children had reached home from school at around 1.30 pm on Friday. Sangeeta talked with Aryan and then she went into the washroom. When she did not come out even after one hour, Aryan knocked on the door of the washroom but there was no reply from inside. Aryan informed his grandparents, who were in the hall on the ground floor. The neighbours also reached there. They called a carpenter, who opened the door using a cutter. Aryan and his sister were shocked to see mother Sangeeta hanging in the bathroom. They immediately informed their father Mitesh. Later, Sangeeta was taken to the hospital but she could not be saved. The police sent the body for autopsy and investigated the spot but no suicide note was recovered from her place.

They used to tell her that she was insane. She did not retaliate but it affected her very much and she went into depression and so she killed herself.
