Overview
- Police found a 24‑year‑old woman hanging at her Nangloi home on Tuesday and recovered a more‑than‑three‑minute video in which she accused her husband and in‑laws of sustained harassment and pleaded with her parents to care for her daughter.
- Investigators recorded family statements before the Sub‑Divisional Magistrate, registered a case citing cruelty and possible abetment to suicide, and have seized the phone and other exhibits for forensic examination.
- The deceased’s mother told officials the husband used to assault her while intoxicated, and police say the husband is being treated for a serious head injury and is in critical condition; those claims are being verified as part of the inquiry.
- Separately, police are probing a contemporaneous West Delhi (Khyala) death in which a 24‑year‑old was found with a ligature mark and family members alleged harassment by in‑laws, and authorities have followed the same SDM and post‑mortem procedures.
- Officials say post‑mortem and forensic analysis of the videos and physical evidence will guide further legal action and decisions about the child the woman named in her recording.
