Harassed by wife, in-laws, Gurugram doctor commits suicide

The complainant Om Singh, a resident of village Jhanjharola, told the police that his son was a doctor in a private hospital in Gurugram.

"My son was married to a resident of Alwar, in January 2015. On August 26, the doctor had swallowed a poisonous substance due to mental stress. He died during treatment at a hospital. The police took the body in possession and handed it over to the family members after postmortem. I didn't file any complaint at that time," Singh told the police.

Singh said in his complaint that 14 days after the doctor's death when he was cleaning the house after separating his belongings, a diary was found in the medical practitioner's suitcase which contained the suicide note.

"In the suicide note, the doctor had written that his in-laws are harassing him due to which he is committing suicide. He also blamed his wife, mother-in-law , his wife's aunts, for his death," Singh asserted in his police complaint.

Following this, Singh filed a complaint and handed over the suicide note to the police, which have started the investigation on the basis of the complaint.
