Bengaluru: A young lady doctor working at the MS Ramaiah Hospital in the city committed suicide earlier last week allegedly after being pressured by a fellow doctor at the hospital for having a relationship with him.

The deceased doctor has been identified as Dr. Priyanshi Tripati, a native of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh.

A case was filed at Sanjay Nagar Police Station following a complaint filed by Priyanshi’s father Susheel Tripati who alleged that Dr. Sumit was harassing his daughter for having a relationship with him.

He further alleged that Priyanshi committed suicide when Dr. Sumit spread rumors against her and tried character assassination among colleagues when she rejected his proposal repeatedly.

A case under section 306 of the Indian Penal Code has been filed based on the complaint and the police is further investigating the matter.
