Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, July 30, 2025 – A sense of shock and grief has gripped Sisareri village under Bardah police station limits in Azamgarh, after a woman was found dead at her residence in what appears to be a case of suicide under suspicious circumstances. The incident occurred on Wednesday afternoon and has triggered a wave of concern among locals and the victim’s family.
The woman, in her early thirties, was found hanging from the ceiling of her room around 2 p.m. when no one else was present in the house. According to preliminary details, her husband had stepped out to collect ration supplies, while their two young sons were away at school. The woman’s lifeless body was discovered by neighbours who grew suspicious after repeatedly calling her and receiving no response.
Initial reports suggest that the woman had returned from the fields the previous evening after a domestic dispute with her husband. The disagreement reportedly began during agricultural work, and close relatives claim she was visibly distressed when she returned home. The very next day, she was found hanging, raising troubling questions about whether this was a case of emotional breakdown or if something more sinister occurred behind closed doors.
As of now, the police have initiated an investigation and sent the body for post-mortem examination. The forensic report is expected to play a crucial role in determining the nature of the death. Authorities are carefully examining whether the marks on the body are consistent with suicide or indicate possible foul play.
What adds to the suspicion is that the door of the house was not bolted from the inside, as one would typically expect in such a case. It was merely latched lightly, making it easy for someone to enter or leave unnoticed. This detail has deepened the mystery, prompting the woman’s maternal family to allege that her death may not be a simple suicide. They have demanded a full investigation, insisting that the truth be brought to light.
Police officers from Bardah reached the spot shortly after the incident was reported. Statements are being recorded from neighbours, the woman’s husband, and other family members. Investigators have also taken stock of the house to look for any signs of forced entry, physical struggle, or any evidence that could point in a particular direction.
As of the time of writing, no FIR has been officially filed under specific criminal sections, but a case of suspicious death has been registered. Authorities have assured the family that no aspect of the case will be ignored and that action will be taken based on forensic findings and testimonies.
The final word on what truly happened inside that house on Wednesday afternoon is still awaited. Investigations are ongoing.
