The Meghwadi Police on Monday booked the son and daughter of a former constable for abetment of suicide after the 21-year-old daughter of a BMC employee allegedly committed suicide on Sunday in Partabnagar, Jogeshwari East. The police said the woman had left a suicide note for her father telling him that the evidence against the accused was in her mobile phone. The police have arrested the accused.

The deceased’s father told the police, “After my wife passed away and son got married, I was living with my daughter who worked as an attendant at  the COVID vaccination Centre in Andheri.” On Sunday night, when he got home and his daughter did not answer the door, he peeped through the window and saw her hanging. He raised an alarm and his neighbours helped rush her to the hospital where she was declared dead.
