A 23-year-old man in Maharashtra died by suicide at a tyre puncture shop, leaving behind a note in which he alleged harassment by his partner’s family.

Dnyaneshwar Kokate, a resident of Maharashtra’s Beed district, was in a relationship with a woman from a nearby village.

According to reports, the girl’s family was against their relationship, and therefore, the two were not in contact with each other.

According to Kokate’s mother, his lover’s family called him to meet them one day and brutally beat him up and humiliated him, NDTV reported.

Four men tied him to a tree, snatched his mobile phone and two-wheeler, and beat him, she informed the police while demanding justice for her son. He also demanded strict action against the accused.

“The accused told him that they would beat his father and me, too. He could not bear it," she added.

Kokate hanged himself to death in a tyre puncture shop on the Dhule-Solapur highway as he was very humiliated.

“I was beaten severely, defamed in the village as a thief, and threatened with death," Kokate wrote in a note before his death.

The police is investigating the matter and a case has been filed against four people at the Neknur police station.
