The family was absconding after locking the house

5 points of suicide note
1. Justice is Due Atul’s suicide note started with ‘Justice is due’. In this Atul writes- My wife got 9 cases registered against me.

The remaining cases include dowry harassment, divorce and maintenance, which are going on in the District Court and High Court.
2. Accusations against Jaunpur judge
Atul also made serious allegations against Jaunpur Court Principal Family Judge Rita Kaushik. Atul said that the judge said that the cases are false, you should think about the family and settle the case. I will take Rs 5 lakh to settle the case.
3. Wife asked for Rs 1 crore
It was written in the letter that my wife, mother-in-law and her uncle Sushil Singhania demanded Rs 1 crore, which has now increased to Rs 3 crore. The court ordered me to pay Rs 80,000 per month for the care of my 4.5 year old son. This increased my stress.
4. Marriage through matrimony site
Atul had written that I had not been able to meet my son for 3 years, even though I had applied for this in the court several times. The wife had demanded Rs 2 lakh per month, although she is an educated and working woman. Works in a multinational company. In 2019, Atul married Nikita after meeting a match through a matrimony site.
