“My husband beat me again. This time for heating water to take bath. I told him that I was sorry for using the geyser for few minutes more. But he did not listen. He dragged me out of the bathroom and thrashed me in front of mother in-law, sister in-law and even grown up children. My father in law also supported my husband. He said that no one will save me,” Shushrutha‘s message to her brother reads.

Her seven-year-old son told the police that his father dragged her out of the bathroom naked and beat her.

No suicide note was found, but police registered a case against Mohan under Sections 306 (abetment to commit suicide) and 498-a (subjecting married woman to cruelty) of the IPC and Sections 3, 4, 6 of the DP Act based on a complaint by her family members.

Sushrutha’s parents allege that hot water was poured on her and have urged the police to register a case of murder against Mohan. They have also refused to take her body to Suryapet, saying the in-laws must perform the last rites as per the tradition.
