Woman Dies By Suicide After Lover Refuses To Marry Her
Leaves an 18-page note accusing her lover and others; her family demands immediate arrests of all accused: Reports
WARANGAL: A 25-year-old woman has died by suicide at her residence in Mahabubabad district on Friday. She had been distressed over the man who professed love backing out of marriage citing caste differences.
The suicide has triggered protest by the woman’s family members and relatives at the Mahabubabad underbridge, demanding the immediate arrest of those named in the suicide note left behind by the woman.
The deceased Munige Sushmita had been a resident of Nadivada village and elder daughter of Kumaraswamy and Sukanya. She had completed her degree and had been preparing for competitive examinations, aspiring to secure a government job. She had also been attending sub-inspector coaching classes in Mahabubabad.
According to police, Sushmita had been in a relationship with Somakuri Anil, also from the same village. In an 18-page suicide note recovered by the police, she reportedly stated that Anil had promised to marry her. However, he later refused to do so, citing caste differences. Sushmita wrote that whenever she raised the issue of marriage, Anil referred to objections from his friends and family about marrying a woman from the scheduled caste community.
Sushmita held Anil responsible for her death. She regretted leaving the world without fulfilling her ambition of securing a government job and bringing recognition to her parents.
Mahabubabad Rural police reached the woman’s residence after receiving information about her suicide. They recovered the suicide note.
Based on a complaint lodged by her parents and contents of the note, Mahabubabad DSP N. Tirupathi Rao said they have registered a case against 11 persons, including Anil, his parents, and the village sarpanch, under SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
The victim’s family members and relatives staged a protest at the Mahabubabad underbridge demanding the immediate arrest of all those named in the suicide note.
