Live-in Partner Held for Woman’s Suicide Nagpur: Authorities in Nagpur have registered a case against a 46-year-old man accused of abetting the suicide of his live-in partner, a 51-year-old numerologist named Reshma Rewatkar. The incident occurred in the Tatya Tope Nagar area, where Rewatkar, who had divorced her husband in 2019, was residing with the accused, Shashank Gajbhiye. Police investigations revealed that Gajbhiye had long harbored suspicions about Rewatkar’s character, subjecting her to repeated harassment, physical abuse, and psychological torment. The alleged abuse escalated on April 9, when Gajbhiye reportedly assaulted and tortured Rewatkar again. Unable to endure the emotional and physical trauma, Rewatkar jumped from the second floor of her residence late on April 10, leading to her death. Initially, the police had registered an accidental death report at the Bajaj Nagar police station. However, following a complaint from Rewatkar’s daughter, the authorities invoked Section 306 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), which pertains to abetment of suicide, against Gajbhiye. The case highlights the severe consequences of domestic violence and emotional abuse, particularly in relationships where power imbalances exist. Rewatkar’s family has since sought justice, emphasizing the need for stricter legal measures to protect vulnerable individuals from such atrocities. The police have begun a thorough inquiry into the circumstances surrounding Rewatkar’s death, including the nature of her relationship with Gajbhiye and the extent of his alleged mistreatment. This incident has sparked discussions about the prevalence of domestic violence and the importance of legal safeguards for victims.#nagpur #bajaj_nagar #tatya_tope_nagar #shashank_gajbhiye #reshma_rewatkar
Alert Cops Ignore Jurisdictional Boundaries to Avert Woman-Daughter Suicide Nagpur: Two constables from Bajaj Nagar police station, Narendra Kewate and Pankaj Rathod, defied jurisdictional restrictions to intervene in a suicide attempt by a woman and her daughter at Ambazari Lake. The incident occurred on Friday at approximately 10:50 a.m., when the officers received an alert about two unknown women attempting to take their own lives at the lake. Despite being posted under Bajaj Nagar police jurisdiction, the beat marshals crossed into Ambazari police territory to address the crisis. Upon arrival, the officers found a 40-year-old mother and her 22-year-old daughter standing on the lake bank, visibly distressed. The women, residents of Rameshwari area, were grappling with a family conflict rooted in financial and educational disputes. The mother had invested Rs5 lakh in a nursing course for her daughter, but the younger woman had opted for a career in a beauty parlour, leading to a rift. The constables engaged the women in a calm conversation, listened to their grievances, and persuaded them to abandon their suicidal plans. The officers then contacted the women’s relatives and arranged for their immediate support. Since the incident fell under Ambazari police jurisdiction, Kewate and Rathod informed the local station and handed over the mother-daughter duo for further legal proceedings and counseling. Bajaj Nagar senior police inspector Chetan Chauhan emphasized that the constables had prevented a potential tragedy, stating, “Our constables convinced them not to take the drastic step.” Chauhan also highlighted the dedication of Nagpur police personnel, noting that their actions prioritized human lives over bureaucratic boundaries.#nagpur #ambazari_lake #bajaj_nagar #rameshwari #chauhan
Numerologist in Live-In Jumps to Death A former HR executive and numerologist, Reshma Rawatkar, 51, died after jumping from the terrace of her residence in Tatya Tope Nagar, Nagpur, on Thursday evening. The incident occurred amid escalating tensions in her live-in relationship with her former colleague, which had been marked by frequent arguments. Police arrived at the scene shortly after the jump and transported her to a private hospital, but she succumbed to her injuries by early Friday morning. Rawatkar, a divorcee, was in a live-in relationship with her former workplace colleague. According to her partner, the couple’s disputes were primarily driven by suspicions of infidelity on her part and mounting pressure from neighbors. The partner told investigators that the couple had engaged in heated arguments throughout Thursday, with the situation deteriorating to a critical point. Locals reportedly alerted the police, prompting an intervention attempt to de-escalate the situation. The police initially registered the case as an accidental death at Bajaj Nagar police station. However, the circumstances surrounding the incident have raised questions and sparked suspicion. The partner’s account of the couple’s conflicts, combined with the neighbor pressure, has left authorities probing the exact sequence of events leading to Rawatkar’s decision. The case highlights the complex interplay of personal and external factors in such tragic incidents. While the police have not yet confirmed any foul play, the initial classification of the death as accidental has not quelled public speculation. The partner’s statement about the couple’s disputes underscores the role of interpersonal conflicts in contributing to such extreme actions.#nagpur #reshma_rawatkar #tatya_tope_nagar #tatya_tope_nagar_nagpur #bajaj_nagar
