Gurgaon: A 27-year-old Gurgaon-based woman from Guwahati allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself at her rented flat at Sector-43 in Gurgaon on Monday. The deceased has been identified as Bidisha Bezbaruah from Uzan Bazaar in Guwahati.

The deceased woman worked as a senior account executive in a private company situated in Udyog Vihar in Gurgaon. In 2016, Bidisha got married to Nisheeth Jha, who hails from Gujarat. Mr Jha works as a sales manager in Gurgaon.

The broker of the flat, where Bidisha lived, informed the police about the incident, said the Gurgaon police.

“During the investigation we came to know that her husband had an extra-marital affair with another woman. Bidisha also wanted to divorce him. We have arrested her husband,” said a senior Gurgaon police official.

“Around 9.04 pm on Monday, I received a call from police informing me about my daughter’s death. On the same day, she had called me and expressed her wish to divorce her husband. Later, I called her husband urging him to come back from Mumbai as Bidisha was stressed. However, he refused. She had been telling me and my wife (her mother) about the marital discord between the two of them. 

“She had also shared about her husband’s extra-marital affair with her family as well as her friends. She was very disturbed because of these reasons throughout her married life of 14 months. They got married on April 28, 2016,” her father, Ashwini Kumar Bezbaru-ah, complained in the FIR. 

Bidisha was a very popular face, known mostly for her contributions in the cultural field and earned praises for her brilliant performance in the drama Xanto Xisto Hristo Pusto Mohadusto. She was also seen performing Bihu along with Angaraag Mahanta during this year’s Radio Mirchi Music Awards.

Meanwhile, Assam chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal on Tuesday spoke to his Haryana counterpart Manohar Lal Khattar seeking proper probe into the mysterious death.

During his telephonic conversation, Mr Sonowal requested Mr Khattar for ensuring proper investigation into the death of Bidisha so that the bereaved family gets justice in the case, an official release said. Sonowal is presently in New Delhi.
