Tragic Tale: Cyber Fraud Leads to Woman's Suspected Suicide in Chilkana

A 26-year-old woman named Rani, believed to have committed suicide after being duped by cyber fraudsters of Rs 1.5 lakh, will have her body exhumed for a post-mortem in Chilkana. Her mother filed a complaint following persuasion from relatives, leading to police action.

The body of a 26-year-old woman, identified as Rani, is set to be exhumed for a post-mortem examination in the Chilkana area, after suspicions arose regarding her alleged suicide last week. Police disclosed the development on Sunday.

Rani's family initially buried her without lodging a complaint. However, two days later, her mother Vakila, encouraged by neighbors and relatives, reported the case to the Chilkana police station, a police officer confirmed.

The post-mortem, guided by the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), comes on orders from Saharanpur District Magistrate Manish Bansal. Rani reportedly consumed poison on January 4 after being deceived by cyber fraudsters who falsely promised marriage and extracted Rs 1.5 lakh from her.
