The police said they have notified the woman's family, who have left their home in Mainpuri to come to Lucknow. 'On receipt of their complaint, a case will be registered and necessary action will be taken,' the statement said. Pune man arrested after wife dies by suicide In a separate incident, a 26-year-old woman allegedly took her own life by hanging herself at her home in Maharashtra's Pune after which her husband has been arrested, and her in-laws have been booked in connection with a dowry harassment case, police said on July 22. The incident occurred on July 18. The accused has been identified as Ashish Deepak Dhamodar, 32, the deceased woman's husband, who runs a badminton academy in Moshi. The police have also named Ashish's parents – Sunanda Deepak Dhamodar and Deepak Tukaram Dhamodar – in the case. According to the complaint lodged by Sanjay Dod, 58, from Akola district, his daughter was allegedly subjected to harassment and mental torture over dowry demands. Police said the woman's in-laws had demanded ₹5 lakh and a two-wheeler from her family. Her relatives have also alleged that Ashish regularly abused and tormented her, which ultimately led to her death by suicide. The deceased, who was the mother of a one-and-a-half-year-old child, reportedly ended her life on the day of Ashish's birthday.
