MALAPPURAM: A newlywed woman has committed suicide in Malappuram, unable to bear the continuous humiliation from her husband regarding her complexion. The deceased is Kondotty native Shahana Mumtaz (19). Shahana was found hanging at the house at around 10 am today. In their complaint, Shahana’s family alleged that her husband, Abdul Wahid, repeatedly subjected her to mental abuse, criticizing her dark complexion and her inability to speak English.

The complaint also states that Shahana was pressured to agree to a divorce. The complaint has been filed against Abdul Wahid, a native of Marayoor, and his parents. The couple got married on May 27, 2024. After the marriage, the couple lived together for only 20 days before Abdul Wahid returned to the Gulf. After reaching there, he frequently called Shahana, demanding a divorce over the phone. Shahana was a degree student.
