A chilling incident reminiscent of Greater Noida has emerged from Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Haunted by relentless dowry demands, a school teacher tragically ended her life along with her innocent child. The victim, identified as 32-year-old Sanju Bishnoi, took her three-year-old daughter in her arms, doused herself with petrol, and set them both ablaze. The child died instantly, while Sanju passed away in the hospital.
According to a police officer, this heart-wrenching incident unfolded on August 22. At the time, Sanju's husband, Dilip Bishnoi, was absent from their home. Alarmed by the sudden smoke, neighbors called Sanju's father. As her family arrived, they discovered her engulfed in flames, and the child had already succumbed. The police promptly arrived at the scene following the distressing call.
Mandor's ACP, Nagendra Kumar, reported that the child died on the spot, and the mother succumbed to her injuries at Jodhpur's Mahatma Gandhi Hospital later. Her father filed a complaint on Sunday, alleging persistent dowry harassment led his daughter to take this drastic step, tragically including her child in her final act.
Shocking Accusations in Sanju's Suicide Note
The police have lodged a case against her husband Dilip Bishnoi, mother-in-law, father-in-law, and sister-in-law under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code, based on Sanju's father's complaint. Her family accuses the in-laws of driving Sanju to suicide. A note discovered at the scene contained grave allegations against her in-laws.
