Swetha, aged between 30-32, was found hanging in her room to ceiling fan this morning by her husband Shrikant.
"The couple were married 10 years ago. Shrikant seems to run a photo studio while the woman was employed in a private firm. They had a heated argument last night," Ramgopalpet police station inspector P Murali Krishna told PTI.
However, Swetha's parents alleged that her husband and in-laws used to torture their daughter for money as Shrikant didn't do any work.
Following the allegations of physical and mental harassment, police registered a case of abetment to suicide against Shrikant and his parents. Further investigation is on.
