Jayesh Raut and wife Trupti in happier times.
Fed up with his wife’s extra-marital affair, a 29-year-old man allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself from the ceiling of his Pratiksha Nagar residence in Sion. However, before ending his life, he recorded a statement on his mobile phone.
The deceased, Jayesh Raut, was upset over his 23-year-old wife Trupti’s illicit relationship with 38-year-old Rajesh Verma. Jayesh, who was helping his mother run a flower stall outside Siddhivinayak temple in Prabhadevi, went into depression after he learnt that Trupti was two months pregnant with Rajesh’s baby.
“I love you Trupti. I can’t live without you. Trupti and her paramour Rajesh are responsible for my death,” Jayesh said before hanging himself.
On November 18, the police said, Trupti had called Rajesh to her Pratiksha Nagar home after she had a fight with her husband and asked him to take her to his Virar home. On her way to Virar, Trupti received an SMS from Jayesh, asking her to see his video. After reading it, Trupti called Jayesh’s brother and asked him to rush to her husband’s house to save him.
According to the police, Jayesh and Trupti tied the knot eight months ago after a nine-year courtship.
However, for the past two months the two were having regular fights over the affair.
The Wadala Truck Terminus police on Friday arrested Trupti and Rajesh for allegedly abetting the suicide of Jayesh.
“We have booked Trupti and Rajesh, a divorcee, under Sections 306 (abetment to commit suicide), 497 (adultery) and 34 (common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). We have also seized Jayesh’s mobile phone. However, we have not found any suicide note,” said police inspector Sawalaram Agawane, adding that the mobile phone will be sent for forensic test.
The two have been remanded in police custody till November 27. Jayesh’s brother Hemant demanded that the police should register a case of murder against Trupti and Rajesh.
