Mumbai Law Graduate Jumps to Death After Ex-Girlfriend's Threats
A 24-year-old man who studied law lived with his family in Mumbai, India.
He used to work for a judge but was working from home.
He was feeling very sad and stressed.
His mother found out he had once dated a woman while studying in Bengaluru.
The relationship ended badly, and the woman and her sister started threatening him.
They said they would get him in trouble with the police by making up a false case against him.
Before his mother could help him, he locked himself in his room and jumped out of the window from the 13th floor.
He was taken to a hospital, but the doctors could not save him.
The police registered an official case called "abetment of suicide" against the two women.
The police are still investigating and have not arrested anyone yet.
A 24-year-old law graduate died after jumping from the 13th floor of his flat in Bandra East, Mumbai, and was declared dead at a nearby hospital.
Mumbai Police registered a case of abetment of suicide against two women - his former girlfriend and her older sister - over alleged threats to frame him in a false police case.
The victim's mother said her son's relationship with a woman, formed while studying in Bengaluru, deteriorated and led to the alleged threats.
On August 6, the mother learned of the relationship from two of her son's friends; after she confronted him, he locked himself in his bedroom and jumped out of the window.
The mother filed an FIR at Kherwadi Police Station, noting that a text message had earlier been sent to her younger son's phone by one of the accused; no arrests have been made so far.
