A woman committed suicide after she was beaten up by her husband for leaving the geyser on for too long. 31-year-old Susrutha is married to Mohan Rao, a software engineer. Her elder son told the police that his father had beaten his mother.
Susrutha messaged her father that her husband Mohan Rao had dragged her out of the bathroom and physically assaulted her in the presence of his parents and two sons, six and four.
Her father Satyanarayana told her that they would come to her as soon as they could. The police have arrested Mohan Rao and his parents.
By the time her parents reached her home in Hyderabad from Nalgonda, about one and a half hours away, they were told their daughter had hung herself to death.
Susrutha’s parents say she had described her humiliation on the phone and wept
Sattaiah, a police officer, said cases have been filed for multiple charges including assisting suicide. “The girl’s family suspects it is a case of murder. The father Satyanarayana has filed a complaint with us. We have detained the husband and family for further questioning.”
