A young woman committed suicide following alleged harassment for dowry. And her father has accused her husband and father-in-law of driving her to death.
The woman (18), residing at Valasarawakkam, had fallen in love and married her neighbour with their parents' consent last January.
Muralikrishnan, the father
of the girl, had given seven sovereigns as dowry against the promised 10
sovereigns. This led to a quarrel and the woman hanged herself. Based on
a complaint from her father, police have detained her husband, her father-in-law
and the latter's brother. Further investigations are on.
