Sejal had reportedly said, “I can’t take the pressure of this hard life” in her suicide letter which, as per reports, appeared to have been written in a hurry and was not fully legible. A report in a prominent Mumbai newspaper quoted a Thane police official saying that the force was looking to bring in handwriting experts to decipher certain parts of the letter that were written in cursive. It was the same officer who added that as per the probe's understanding at that point in time, she was 'tired of life's struggles', adding that she had apparently apologized to her parents and told them that they'd have to live with 'her decision'.
