A 32-year-old woman Mumbai Police constable, identified as Varsha Shinde, attached to the Trombay station killed herself at her residence in Maharashtra Nagar, Mankhurd on Tuesday morning. Varsha`s lifeless body was discovered hanging from a ceiling fan by her husband and brother after she failed to respond to their calls and knocks on her bedroom door.

Varsha informed her husband that she was experiencing acidity and needed to take a short nap after her day duty on Monday, as she was scheduled for night duty today. While her daughter prepared for school, Varsha retired to her bedroom. When Varsha did not open her bedroom door by 8 am, her husband became concerned and attempted to contact her.
