Tapubhai Parghi in his complaint with the Chuda Police station has stated that his nephew Lakshman Parmar and sister-in-law Premaben committed suicide on December 15, because Lakshman's in-laws were harassing, torturing and threatening to kill them, as they were against Lakshman's live-in-relationship with his sister-in-law Payalben. Thane Shocker: 24-Year-Old Housewife Hangs Herself Due to Harassment in Kalyan, Husband and Father-in-Law Arrested for Abetment of Suicide.
