“He told our daughter that he was addicted to alcohol and had multiple girlfriends. He also complained about being forced into the marriage by his father and pressured Rehana to call off the marriage. When Rehana tried to confront him as to why his behaviour had suddenly changed, Shahjahan bluntly told our daughter that he completely disliked her and wasn’t getting any feelings towards her," Rehana's family told TOI.

"This behaviour of Shahjahan pushed our daughter into a state of depression and she took to the extreme step of committing suicide.

In her long suicide note, the woman explained her pain and ordeal and urged the police to punish Shahjahan who is responsible for her death, her parents appealed.

Wedding scheduled in Aug

According to police, the wedding of Rehana and Shahjahan was scheduled to take place in August this year. Initially, the couple reportedly shared a cordial relationship but in recent days, the man's behaviour changed.

Police said Rehana’s body was shifted to the Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) in Kadapa for a postmortem. Based on a complaint lodged by Rehana’s father, Chinna Chowk police initially registered a case and launched an investigation. Police arrested Shahjahan and his parents, M Veeraiah and M Waheeda, on charges of abetment to suicide. The accused were produced before a local court and sent to judicial remand.
