Mysuru: A First Division Assistant (FDA) attached to city’s Mounted Police Force, unable to bear the alleged harassment from his wife, committed suicide by hanging self at his house in Gandhinagar on Oct. 7 evening.
The deceased is P.M. Sundar Raj (46). He had married Dakshayini, a teacher at T. Narasipur Government Higher Primary School in 2015 and differences in opinions cropped up in just two months of their marriage following which they began to stay separately.
