Kaushambi Woman Commits Suicide After Mother Bars Her Phone Calls To Fiance

Kaushambi: An 18-year-old woman from Uttar Pradesh's Kaushambi district allegedly committed suicide after her mother barred her from speaking to her fiance. The marriage was scheduled for November this year, but Laxmi's life was cut short, leaving her family in shock. The deceased, identified as Laxmi Saroj, was reportedly in regular contact with her fiance. However, her constant conversations with her fiance prompted her mother to object to them. 

According to the police, the restriction proved too much for Laxmi, who hanged herself inside her home. Her lifeless body left her family in complete darkness, leaving the neighbours in shock. The police were informed, and a team reached the spot, taking custody of the body and sending it for post-mortem.  

Police official Satendra Tiwari confirmed that Laxmi died by suicide by hanging, asserting that the police are investigating the circumstances leading to her death. "The family was taking the body for last rites. On receiving information, police reached the spot, took custody of the body and sent it for post-mortem. Further necessary action is being taken," he said. The investigation into the circumstances leading to Laxmi's death is underway. 

In a similar incident in Kaushambi, a 15-year-old girl attempted suicide after being allegedly raped by her school principal. In another incident, a woman died by consuming a poisonous substance, accusing her neighbour of molestation.
