Woman dies by suicide two months after marriage in Santacruz East

In a tragic incident reported from Mumbai`s Santacruz East, a 29-year-old woman allegedly ended her life barely two months after getting married. The woman took the extreme step at her mother`s residence in Shastri Nagar, Kalina, on Sunday evening, according to PTI.

An officer from Vakola Police Station, under whose jurisdiction the case falls, confirmed the incident, stating that the woman was staying with her mother at the time. “She had been married just two months ago and was currently residing at her maternal home,” the officer said. “She was alone at the time of the incident, as her mother had stepped out to visit a nearby temple. Upon returning home later that night, her mother found her dead.”

No suicide note was discovered at the scene, and the reasons behind the woman`s drastic action remain unclear at this stage. The police have registered an Accidental Death Report (ADR) and have commenced further investigations into the matter. Statements from the family and close associates are likely to be recorded in the coming days to better understand the circumstances leading up to the incident.

Neighbours and local residents were left shocked by the news, describing the woman as a soft-spoken and reserved individual. “She mostly kept to herself, but seemed perfectly fine the last few times we saw her,” said a woman from the same building.
