Tragic Double Death in Gurugram: Techie Strangles Wife

Gurugram, Sep 30: In a shocking incident, a software engineer allegedly strangled his wife to death before taking his own life in their home in Gurugram. The accused, Ajay Kumar, aged 30, reportedly sent a video message to a friend on Sunday at 3:15 PM, indicating his intention to commit suicide. His wife, Sweety Sharma, 28, was found dead in their flat, while Ajay was discovered hanging from a ceiling fan.

The couple, both software engineers working at an IT firm in Gurugram, had been married for three years. Police received a call from Ajay's friend after he viewed the distressing video, which suggested a domestic dispute had occurred between the couple. Upon arrival at the scene in Sector 37, officers found Sweety's body on the floor, with a scarf used to strangle her.

Initial investigations indicate that Ajay may have killed Sweety before taking his own life. However, the exact motive behind this tragic event is still unclear. Following the incident, Sweety's family has filed a complaint alleging murder against Ajay. The police are continuing their investigation into the case, as confirmed by Sanjay Kumar, Additional SHO of Sector 10 A police station.

This incident highlights the urgent need for mental health support and intervention in domestic disputes. Authorities encourage anyone in distress to seek help from available mental health resources.
