Mumbai Dentist Dies By Suicide; Boyfriend Arrested For Alleged Abetment
A 24-year-old postgraduate dentistry student in Mumbai died by suicide at her home in the city’s Antop Hill area, with police alleging that she was under severe emotional distress due to issues in her relationship.
The deceased, identified as Stuti Sonwane, reportedly left behind a six-page suicide note detailing the mental harassment she faced from her boyfriend.
Boyfriend Arrested
Police have arrested her boyfriend, Fuzail Mohammad Khan, on charges of abetment to suicide. He has been remanded to one-day police custody as the investigation continues.
According to officials, the note revealed that the couple had been in a relationship, but frequent suspicions of infidelity and accusations about her character allegedly created a toxic environment for the student.
Incident At Home
Stuti lived with her parents and sister in their Antop Hill residence.
On the day of the incident, her family became concerned when she did not come out of her room until around 11 am. After repeated calls went unanswered, the family broke open the door and found her hanging from the ceiling.
She was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared her dead on arrival.
Police Investigation
Police have registered a case of unnatural death and are now investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident.
Authorities are currently:
- Examining the suicide note
- Recording statements from family members
- Investigating the nature of the relationship between the two
Further legal action will depend on the findings of the ongoing probe.
