IMPHAL, June 3: A new twist has emerged in the case of the death of a woman, a resident of Samram Makha Leikai, Thoubal who had killed herself by consuming poison in the evening of May 25.
Contrary to the claim of the dead woman’s mother that her daughter’s husband, Ningthoujam Surjit, a Village Defence Force personnel posted at Tentha post was having extra marital affair which provoked her daughter to take the extreme step; the husband has today made the counter charge that it was his deceased wife who was the one having an extra-marital affair.
Speaking to media persons at a press conference called at Manipur Press Club, the husband while clarifying on the charges against him said his mother in law’s charges of him leading an adulterous life are baseless and unfounded.
Elected member of the Samram Makha Leikai Gram Panchayat, Jiten Kabrambam, who was also present at the conference, seconded Surjit’s statement and dismissed the allegations of Surjit`s mother-in-law that he had tortured his wife as baseless.
He said a day after the incident, police had arrested three of Surjit’s family members including his mother, sister and sister in law, but were let off in the evening of the same day.
This means that they are innocent and had no hand in the death, he said.
Surjit further clarified that he had never tortured his wife but on May 18, he had chided his wife because she had failed to cut the fodder for their cattle following which, she left the house and failed to return for three days.
