A 28-year-old newlywed woman dies after allegedly falling from a third-floor apartment in a Delhi residential complex, according to police and both reports. The death occurs within months of her marriage, which took place roughly two-and-a-half to three months before the incident. The woman’s family rejects suicide as the cause and alleges dowry harassment and murder by her husband and in-laws. Police have initiated an investigation and begin recording statements from family members and witnesses. Because the death falls within the statutory timeframe for such cases, officials conduct a mandatory inquest under the SDM framework. The authorities are examining circumstances around the fall, including accounts of what happened before and after the incident, and are treating the allegations as part of the probe. Both outlets report that the incident involves a newly married woman and that the family’s claims center on dowry-related abuse, while the investigation is ongoing and cause of death has not been established publicly.
