Indore Suicide: In a shocking incident, a man in Indore district of Madhya Pradesh, died by suicide during a video call with his wife after she rejected his pleas to return from her parent’s house, where she had been living for sometime due to some marital dispute between the couple.
A disturbing video of the incident has surfaced on social media platforms, showing the deceased, 30-year-old Manoj Nirmal, hanging himself from a ceiling fan at his house while on a video call with his wife, who recorded the heartrending act but did not call or contact any authorities for help.

“Manoj Nirmal, a resident of the Pardeshipura police station area, made a video call to his wife on Sunday and hanged himself from the ceiling fan,” a senior police officer said Monday.
The couple had a marital discord, and the woman was living with her parents. The man was a delivery agent with a private firm, said Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police Amarendra Singh.
The officer said Nirmal’s wife recorded a video of her husband’s suicide on her mobile phone, which has now been seized by the police, adding that a detailed investigation in the case is underway.
Notably, in a similar incident earlier this year, a 35-year-old man died by suicide by setting himself on fire in front of his in-laws’ houses in Indore. The victim, Sunil Lohani, took the extreme step as he was upset that his wife had left him and refused to patch things.
