Aluva: Maximum punishment should be ensured to her husband and in-laws, and action should be initiated the circle inspector of police, Mofia Parvin, the 23-year-old law student who committed suicide, wrote in her death note.
The young woman also said her husband Suhail and in-laws were criminals.
"Pappa, Pacha, sorry. Forgive me. You were right. I am unable to live here anymore. I am unable to bear the person I loved mouthing such words," Mofia wrote in the suicide letter addressed to her parents.
"My Ruh (soul) will remain, and they will suffer. My curses will always be with you, Suhail, even God won't forgive you. I slapped him in the face. If I hadn't done it, my conscience would have been hurt. Action should be initiated against the inspector. Suhail, (his) mother and father are criminals. They should be ensured maximum punishment. This is my last wish," she concluded the letter.
Mofia, who had met Mohammed Suhail of Kothamangalam on Facebook, married him on April 3. Her parents had decided to organize a reception for the young couple in December due to financial constraints. However, Mofia's in-laws took her to their house without waiting for the reception. She later returned to her parents at Edayappuram, alleging harassment at her husband's residence.
In her complaint to Aluva East police, Mofia said her in-laws were spreading lies about her mental health, since she refused their demand for a divorce.
It has been alleged that Inspector Sudheer, who summoned Mofia and her father Dilshad to the police station on Monday based on her complaint of abuse, allegedly misbehaved with them in the presence of Suhail and his relatives.
An enraged Mofia slapped Suhail at the station. After returning home, she allegedly committed suicide.
