The N M Joshi Marg police have arrested a 19-year-old man on the abetment to suicide charge after his 17-year-old girlfriend, who jumped off the terrace of her residential complex, died on Monday. According to sources in the police, the family lived at Dhobi Ghat in Mahalaxmi, where the girl met Shubham Jadhav who lived nearby. When the duo got romantically involved, the parents tried to convince both of them to focus on their studies first. When they didn’t listen, the girl’s family shifted to Delisle Road.
“We moved to Delisle Road a year ago thinking he won’t see her any more. But the man still used to meet my daughter. I also found that he would beat her up if she didn’t go out to meet him. My daughter, who turned 17 recently, just finished her Std XI exams,” the deceased’s father, 57, stated in his police statement. On Sunday, April 23, the girl went to meet him at Dhobi Ghat, but the accused allegedly assaulted her.
