WOMAN, PARAMOUR COMMIT SUICIDE WITH KIDS
Katar Singh Wala July 11:
A woman, along with her two children and a man, believed to be her paramour, allegedly committed suicide on the railway track near this village in the district here.
The deceased were identified as Jagroop Singh (32) of Dhapali village, Veer Pal Kaur (27) of the same village, her son Harpreet Laddi (12) and daughter Sumani (7). Two passenger trains had already run over the bodies before bodies were noticed and taken to the civil hospital for a post-mortem examination.
According to the villagers, the four were sighted near the railway track late last evening. In the morning, a team of railway gangmen informed the station master about the four bodies lying on the rail track. Volunteers of an NGO reached the spot and found Sumani alive with a severe head injury. But, she died on the way to the hospital. A bottle of pesticide and two mobile phones were found lying beside the bodies.
An analysis of the calls received on the woman’s mobile phone indicates she was married to Gurtej Singh of Dhapali village and reportedly had illicit relations with Jagroop. According to sources, both had made attempts to elope. This time, the woman was at her paternal Bhodipur village, from where she, along with her children, joined Jagroop. The parents of Jagroop had fixed his marriage with another girl.
In another case, a youth, Gaurav Kumar of Bathinda, who was in his twenties, allegedly committed suicide on platform number 9 of the Bathinda railway junction.
