27-year-old woman jumps to death from Sec 10A highrise

GURGAON: On Monday morning, a 27-year-old married woman jumped to her death from a highrise apartment in Sector 10A in Gurgaon. Incidentally, the building from which she jumped was not the one where she lived.
The deceased, a mother of two kids aged five and one, reportedly had a huge fight with her husband on Sunday night. This was however denied by her husband, who said that they had "no domestic fights" on Sunday.
The alleged suicide took place at 8.35am on Monday in Karmyogi apartment in Sector 10A. Amit Chalana, a native of Ganganagar, has been living with his family in flat No. 607 of Pelican apartment for the past five years. Their apartment is located just at the backside of Karamyogi Apartments, from where Amit's wife, Meenakshi, allegedly committed suicide on Monday. Amit runs his own business in partnership with his friend and the couple has a five-year-old daughter and a one-year-old son.
According to sources, on Monday morning, Meenakshi saw her daughter off to school and then made tea and breakfast, just like any other day. She then told her husband and her mother, who had been visiting her for the past 15 days, that she is going out for some work. After around 10 minutes, Amit and his mother-in-law got information that Meenakshi had committed suicide by jumping from the nearby Karamyogi Apartments.
When they rushed to the spot, they saw Meenakshi's body lying in a pool of blood. She was dead by the time she was taken to the hospital.
A security guard at the Karamyogi Apartments told TOI that while Meenakshi had entered her real name in the register, she wrote down a wrong address - she mentioned Lord Shiva Apartments as her residence (which is also in the vicinity) instead of Pelican Apartments - and mentioned that she was visiting flat No. 203, which housed a beauty parlour. But later, it was found that the parlour is actually located in flat No. 303.
However, her signature was for real and later, it was her husband who identified her handwriting. After getting information, a team of policemen reached the spot and took the body of the deceased into custody.
The police have recorded the statement of the victim's mother and husband and handed over dead body to them after the postmortem. Police are yet to ascertain the floor from which the woman jumped to her death, because there was no eyewitness around.
A neighbour of the victim told TOI that Meenakshi was a housewife and a mother of two children, who were keeping well and she had to look after them. The daughter is a patient of asthma since childhood while her son is suffering from a kidney condition known as hydronephrosis. He has already undergone a few operations at Apollo Hospital and his health was a prime reason for Meenakshi's stress. "That is the reason why we are surprised that she took this %extreme step," said one of the neighbours.
Sub-inspector Budhi Parakash, the additional SHO of Sector 10A police station, said, "We have not found any suicide note and we will be investigating the case from all aspects."
The victim's parents-in-law reside in Chandigarh while her maternal house is in Ganganagar, Rajasthan. Her maternal family and her in-laws are on their way to Gurgaon. Till Monday night, the family had not told the children about the incident.
