Preity Zinta's cousin brother commits suicide

December 4, 2016

Shimla, Dec 4: Bollywood actor Preity Zinta's cousin Nitin Chauhan committed suicide in Himachal Pradesh capital Shimla owing to a matrimonial dispute, police said on Saturday.

Chauhan allegedly shot himself in the head with a pistol in a vehicle early on Friday.

Police said two suicide notes were recovered-one from the car and one from Chauhan's house, wherein he blamed his in-laws for his extreme step.

Chauhan accused his in-laws of not allowing him to meet his children and of threatening to implicate him in false cases, a police official said.

Child rights activist Kumar V. Jahgirdar on Saturday said Chauhan took the step a day before a court hearing in the matrimonial dispute.

"It's indeed shocking that nobody came to the rescue of this father (Chauhan) as he was missing his son. His wife had filed false cases against him to keep him away from his children," said Jahgirdar.

Jahgirdar, President of Child Rights Initiative for Shared Parenting (CRISP) which promotes the cause of shared parenting in case of divorces, said the Centre should declare "parental alienation" a crime and make shared parenting mandatory to protect the rights of children of divorced/separated couples.

Popular Bhojpuri actor Amrita Pandey was found dead in her apartment in Bihar's Bhagalpur last week on April 27, the police said. The cops suspect the actor, 27, died by suicide but the matter is under investigation.

The police said she posted a cryptic WhatsApp status before her death, which read, "Do naav me savaar thi uski zindagi, humne apni naav duba ke uska safar aasaan kar diya" (His/her life was sailing on two boats, we made the journey easy by sinking one). The cops have not recovered any suicide note. She is survived by her husband.

Amrita's family said she worried about her career as she was not getting enough work and was suffering from depression. The family said she was undergoing treatment for depression.

The actor lived in Mumbai with her husband, Chandramani Jhangad, an animation engineer. She went to Bhagalpur to attend her sister's wedding on April 18. Her husband returned home after the wedding but Amrita chose to stay back.

The actor has been alongside Bhojpuri star Khesari Lal Yadav in 'Deewanapan'. She also acted in Hindi movies, TV shows and web series. She is also known for her role in the web series 'Parishodh'.

City Superintendent of Police, Shri Raj, said we will conduct a high-level investigation into this case. A team has been formed, the family members are being interrogated and further action is underway in the case.
