JAIPUR: A 21-year-old girl committed suicide in Murlipura locality of the city after she was allegedly betrayed by her paramour. The girl had left a suicide note accusing a young boy of befooling her on the pretext of marriage and police have arrested the suspected youth on Saturday.
Police said the victim was in love with a youth residing in her neighbourhood for almost four years. Since the youth had promised the girl that he will marry her, they were into physical relationship. During this course, the girl had also terminated her pregnancy.
"On the eve of Holi festival, the girl consumed a poisonous substance and was rushed to a private hospital at the Sikar road where she succumbed," an investigating police officer of the case said on Saturday.
The arrested youth has been identified and police have booked him for abetment of suicide.
Deputy commissioner of police (West) Sharat Kaviraj confirmed that the girl had left a suicide note in which she had given several emotional reasons for taking the extreme step and had also accused the youth of betrayal.
"We can't disclose the names of the girl and the youth since both were neighbours and parents of the girl have requested anonymity," he said.
Police added that the parents of both the girl and the boy knew about the relationship and had taken up several measures to keep them away. "Even, the parents of the boy had sent him out of the city for studies, but he came quite often to the city and did not stop meeting the girl," a police officer said.
The father of the deceased girl has lodged a case at Murlipura police station against the youth implicating him in abetment of suicide.
Further investigations in the case were on, police added.
