New details have emerged in the tragic case of Greater Noida woman, Deepika, who died by suicide on Sunday night, allegedly due to dowry demands and harassment by her husband and in-laws. According to police, the incident took place in the Jalpura area under the jurisdiction of Ecotech 3 Police Station. The woman, Deepika, had been married for around 14 months.
According to the antemortem reports, Deepika had injury marks before she died by suicide. The reports suggest that the cause of death could be internal bleeding after damage to the spleen. Moreover, reports showed that there are blood clots in the brain and liver.
On Sunday, Deepika reportedly called her family crying and informed them she was being beaten and abused by her husband and in-laws. According to an NDTV report, the victim's father visited her house the same evening, along with other relatives, to resolve the dispute between them.
The victim’s family alleged that she was frequently harassed and physically assaulted by her husband and in-laws for dowry, despite the wedding reportedly involving expenses of nearly Rs 1 crore.
They further alleged that the marriage was arranged after a dowry settlement that reportedly included a Fortuner SUV and Rs 1 crore in cash. They also claimed that her in-laws continued to pressure her for additional dowry even after the wedding.
