Representative imageNOIDA: A third-year LLB student of Galgotias University allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself from the ceiling fan at her paying guest accommodation in Sector Alpha 2 on Friday afternoon. Police said the 22-year-old woman was allegedly being harassed by her ex-boyfriend who threatened to show some of her objectionable pictures to her father.
Both the man and the woman were from Jhansi in Uttar Pradesh. They had been in a relationship for the past few years, but broke up in January.
On Friday, the woman’s ex-boyfriend had reached her father’s office in Jhansi from where he allegedly called her once again and threatened to show her pictures.
“I saw him outside my office on Friday but did not know the reason,” said the woman’s father to police.
The woman’s younger sister, who lived with her at the paying guest accommodation, said her sister took her life around 1.30pm, minutes after she ended a conference call with her ex-boyfriend and her college friend.
The victim’s sister is a first-year student in the same university. “During the conference call, her ex-boyfriend asked me how long I knew her. After sometime, he called me separately to inform that she was not picking up his calls and asked me to check on her,” said the woman’s college friend.
Later, when the friend went with an another friend to the woman’s PG, they found the door of her room locked. The duo then peeped inside the room through a window and found her hanging from the ceiling fan. They then informed her parents and the management of the university. The woman’s father has filed a complaint against the ex-boyfriend at Kasna police station. “My daughter could not commit suicide. She was a brave girl. We want justice,” her father said.
On the basis of the complaint, the man has been booked under IPC Section 306 (abetment of suicide).
