RAJKOT: Seven persons were booked for abetting the suicide of a 31-year-old electrician in Jamnagar on Friday.
The accused include wife and four in-laws of the deceased Haresh Solanki, a resident of Jalaram Chowk who had hanged himself to death at his residence on May 29.
Haresh’s brother Subhash Solanki alleged in his complaint that Haresh had married Priyanka about a year ago, but soon they developed differences and started quarrelling over even small issues.
A few months ago, Priyanka’s family took her back to their home in Upleta Rajkot.
“After some time Haresh came to know about Priyanka’s affairs with Imran Piparvada.
So he asked her to give him a divorce.
But Priyanka demanded Rs 3 lakh for giving divorce,” Subhash stated in his complaint.
He further alleged that a few weeks ago Imran and his aide Samir Piparvada came to Haresh’s house and threatened to kill him if he did to give money to Priyanka.
A few days later Haresh ended his life.
According to police, those accused of abetting the suicide of Haresh include his wife Priyanka, father-in-law Babu Parmar, brother-in-law Hardik Parmar, mother-in-law Rama Parmar, sister-in-law Mansi Parmar, Imran and Sameer.
