Bareilly Class 12 student dies by suicide after uncle thrashes her for stopping him from abusing father
BAREILLY: A 17-year-old intermediate student allegedly died by suicide after being assaulted by her uncle for objecting to him abusing her father in Bareilly's Subhashnagar area on Diwali night.
The girl's father has accused his two brothers of harassing his daughter and alleged that the police failed to act on her complaint in time.
The deceased, Nancy Kashyap , was a resident of Ganesh Nagar in Subhashnagar and was studying in Class 12. According to her family, the incident took place around 5.30pm on Diwali when her 20-year-old uncle, Raja, arrived at their house and started hurling abuses at her father, Sanjeev Kashyap , who was not at home at the time.
When Nancy objected to her uncle abusing her father and asked him to speak to him directly once he returned, Raja allegedly lost his temper and assaulted her. He allegedly banged her head against a wall and a bicycle parked nearby. He also kicked Nancy's mother, Gomti Devi, when she intervened. The family's other brother, Deepak (30), was also present and allegedly supported Raja instead of stopping him.
Girl approached police after assault, alleges father
Following the assault, Nancy went to Subhashnagar police station around 6pm and submitted a written complaint seeking action against her uncle. Her father alleged that the police did not take her complaint seriously or act promptly.
According to Sanjeev , when Nancy returned home from the police station, Raja allegedly assaulted her again, angered by her decision to approach the police. Later that night, while the family was busy making arrangements for Diwali puja, Nancy went into a room and allegedly hanged herself.
Family rushed her to three hospitals
The family members found Nancy hanging and immediately brought her down before rushing her to Mission Hospital. As her condition was critical, she was subsequently taken to Deepmala Hospital and then Ramganga Hospital, where doctors declared her dead.
Sanjeev alleged that Raja was addicted to drugs and had been troubling the family for the past year. He claimed that Raja frequently got into disputes and was involved in incidents of snatching, leaving the family distressed.
Father demands action against brothers
Nancy's father, Sanjeev, works as a painter and labourer, while her mother is a homemaker. She is survived by her 15-year-old sister, Gungun, and her grandparents, Hari Prasad and Maya Devi.
The two accused uncles are unmarried. Raja, 20, allegedly does not have regular employment, while Deepak, 30, works as an autorickshaw driver.
Sanjeev has lodged a named complaint against his two brothers at Subhashnagar police station. Police have taken custody of the body and sent it for postmortem examination. An investigation into the incident is underway.
