Chennai, February 14: A 27-year old software engineerhailing from West Bengal committed suicide by hanging in her house in Pazhavanthangal in the intervening night of Saturday and Sunday.

Police suspect that she ended her life after a quarrel with her husband. Police said the victim, Maushmi Rai, was against her husband Nithin Sarkar, also a software engineer, going abroad. Sarkar was to leave for the US on Monday. The two got married on June 27, 2010, and Rai insisted that he shouldn't go.

After shopping on Saturday evening, the couple had returned home in Brindavan Nagar, where they lived with Sarkar's mother.

"As Rai started cooking, an argument broke out," a police officer said. After dinner, they retired to two different rooms. Usually Rai sleeps till 10am on Sundays and Sarkar did not bother to wake her up. But as she did not step out of her room even after noon, Sarkar became suspicious and knocked on the door. "He tried to force it open. As the latch was loose, the door opened and he found her hanging by her duppata tied to a hook on the ceiling," said Pazhavanthangal inspector N Balakrishnan Prabhu.

Since the couple were married for less than seven years, an inquiry by a revenue divisional officer has been ordered.
