In a tragic incident in Nalanda, 27-year-old Bade Mahto was discovered deceased, prompting police to consider the possibility of suicide. Yet, the narrative shifts as his family voices allegations of foul play, attributing the tension to a controversial marriage to his sister-in-law that may have soured family ties.
Biharsharif: A 27-year-old man, identified as Bade Mahto, allegedly died by suicide at Kasimchak village under the Deepnagar police station area in Nalanda district on Saturday night.
His body was found hanging inside a room at his house.
While the initial probe suggests suicide, the family has alleged that it was a pre-planned murder.According to relatives, Mahto had married his sister-in-law, Kajal Devi, after the death of his elder brother. He was facing tensions over land disputes and strained relationship with his wife. The victim’s brother has accused Kajal of being involved in the incident, claiming there were frequent arguments and suspicious movements on the night of the incident.
Kajal, however, has denied the allegations.Deepnagar station house officer Suman Kumar said a case of harassment has been registered based on a complaint lodged by the deceased’s mother. “Mahto was allegedly subjected to mental harassment and was even denied food. We are investigating all possible angles. The exact cause of death will be ascertained after the post-mortem report,” Kumar said, adding that the deceased was mentally unstable.
