Bengaluru Teacher Found Dead Leaves Note Naming Husband and Sister‑in‑Law; Husband Detained

Investigators are verifying allegations of continuous harassment after seizing a handwritten suicide note and detaining the husband.

Overview

  • Police found 25‑year‑old teacher Shwetha hanging from a ceiling fan at her Sunkadakatte home and recovered a handwritten note that blamed her husband and his sister for driving her to take her life; officers say the body was discovered at about 11 p.m. on Sunday.
  • Reports identify the woman as a private‑school teacher who had entered a love marriage about four months earlier and had lived with her husband’s family in Bengaluru.
  • Kamakshipalya police have seized the purported suicide note, registered a case, informed the family and detained the husband for questioning as part of the probe.
  • The note, addressed to her mother, urged that the husband and sister‑in‑law not be spared and said persistent harassment left her without the will to live; police are treating the note’s allegations as unverified pending investigation.
  • Officials say further legal action will depend on verification of the claims in the note, and coverage so far relies mainly on police statements and the recovered note rather than independent corroboration.
