A quick response from men in uniform saved the life of a 24-year-old man who scaled a mountain in Vasai to jump into a 600-meter deep gorge to end his life after an altercation with his wife. The interfaith couple got married three months ago but the husband started picking up fights as his wife`s phone was always busy. The cops rescued the man within 12 minutes.

On May 17, the couple had a heated argument near their workplace in Vasai East and the husband scaled a mountain and told his wife that he is going to jump off the high cliff. The woman got alarmed and dialed the emergency number to seek help. The Mira Bhayandar Vasai Virar (MBVV) Police Control Room relayed an alert message to police officials who were nearby.
