Two days later, Anissia’s father got here to Delhi to get to the bottom of the topic and the households allegedly reconciled. On June 29, Anissia’s circle of relatives returned to Chandigarh.

On July 13, Anissia allegedly texted Neelam saying Mayank was once at house but in a unique room and that she have been overwhelmed up. “At 12.11pm, I texted her again asking about her well-being. She didn’t reply. I won two calls and abusive messages from Mayank after that,” Neelam mentioned within the FIR.

Around 3pm on Friday, Anissia’s father got to find out about her suicide and knowledgeable his wife.

Karan Batra, Anissia’s brother, alleged that her in-laws have been hard dowry and torturing her right from the beginning. Anissia’s father was once assured that the incident would now not be repeated and Mayank also allegedly promised that he would now not drink and beat up his wife. “Moments before she died, she had texted that she was once taking a big step. Later, we got to find out about her demise,” he added, alleging that his sister have been murdered.


The neighbours also claimed that the couple used to have common fights. On Friday too, they heard loud noises popping out of the house. Amar Pal Kohli, a neighbour, claimed that Anissia had even lived one at a time for a while due to their common fights.
