A man was found dead allegedly by suicide at his Ghaziabad home, while his wife killed herself by hanging from a pole in northeast Delhi after a domestic dispute, the police said on Saturday.
Vijay Pratap Chauhan (32) and Shivani (28), residents of Loni, Ghaziabad, had an argument earlier during the day of the incident, after which Shivani left their home and travelled to northeast Delhi.
The police said that she was later found hanging from an electric pole near the Loni roundabout in Delhi, about 8 km from their residence. It came after Vijay’s body was discovered at his home by one of his relatives. He had hanged himself inside the house, according to reports.
The locals immediately informed the police. Upon arrival, they found a mobile phone in Shivani’s pocket, which was turned off. After switching it on, officers contacted her family to inform them of her death, police stated.
A crime and forensic team examined the scene and confirmed there were no other injuries on Shivani’s body, police added.
