A young couple here allegedly committed suicide behind a school in Raslakhedi village under Chhola Mandir Police Station area on Wednesday morning. The bodies of the couple Krishna Singh Chouhan(28) and Jai Chouhan(26) were found near the school. The left wrist of the woman was found slit, while the youth had consumed some poisonous substance. The bodies were found near Bhanpur area, which is around three kms from their residence.
The Chhola Mandir Police Station in-charge Mohar Sarwan informed that the couple was found dead 100 metres away from the railway tracks. The nearby slum dwellers had informed the police about the incident.
A suicide note was recovered from the couple’s possession which stated that their small belongings should be handed over to their family members, Sarwan said. The deceased Krishna used to work as a labourer, he added. He said that the bodies have been sent for postmortem and further investigations were on. Superintendent of Police (North) Arvind Saxena told that prima facie, the incident seems of suicide, but there must be some peculiar reasons behind it.
In the suicide note recovered from the possession of the deceased woman, it was stated that she was feeling harassed from her husband and thus ended life, while in the other suicide note written by the youth, it was stated that he was ending life as life is troublesome.
The police said the woman was a teacher in a private school at Bhanpur. Both woman and her husband lived in a rented house at Shankracharya Nagar. They had come to Bhopal only six months ago. The bodies were identified by deceased Jaya’s colleague Anil Choudhary.
