Panipat. ‘Tonight at 2 o’clock I will hang myself, after my death brother, do not let my unfaithful wife touch my dead body’. After writing this line on his Instagram status, the young man committed suicide. The incident took place in Gopal Colony of Panipat district of Haryana. Here a young man ended his life at 2 o’clock in the night. Before dying, the young man also put a status on his social media Instagram.
However, his family and friends did not see this status at night. The matter came to light when the young man’s mother went to his room in the morning to wake him up and found the room locked. She knocked on the door several times, but there was no response from inside. After this, she sent the child inside through a small hole in the door and when she opened the door, she saw that the son was hanging from the noose. Seeing this, the family members started screaming. The police was informed about the incident. On receiving the information, the police reached the spot and took the body into custody and sent it to the civil hospital for postmortem.
The deceased’s brother Monu said that the deceased Amit was his cousin and originally hailed from Shahjahanpur in Uttar Pradesh. His family has been living on rent in Gopal Colony in Panipat for the last 9 years. Amit got married about a year ago, but since the marriage his wife has mostly stayed at her maternal home. Even now for the last 6 months she is living at her parents’ house, Amit himself has gone to take her many times and efforts were also made to bring her through the Panchayat and the middleman, but she did not come. Amit took this step out of frustration. Somehow the young man could not bear the separation from his wife.
