Techie Atul Subhash's Wife, In-Laws Get Bail In Abetment Of Suicide Case

Atul Subhash Suicide Case: Bengaluru's City Civil Court has granted bail to Nikita Singhania, her mother Nisha Singhania, and her brother Anurag Singhania in connection with the suicide case of Atul Subhash, an automobile company employee, news agency ANI reported. Atul Subhash, who allegedly ended his life on 9 December, cited harassment by his wife and her family in a 90-minute video and a 40-page death note. The documents revealed demands of Rs 3 crore for a divorce settlement as the reason behind his extreme step.

Earlier, Akash Jindal, counsel for Atul Subhash’s family, argued that the accused wife, Nikita, should not use their child to secure bail. "The criminal nature is accumulating to this procedure, and she can't take advantage of the child. We have sought total custody of the child," Jindal said, as quoted by news agency IANS.

Subhash's father, Pavan Kumar Modi, expressed concerns for the safety of his grandson, claiming, "If the court grants bail to Atul's wife, she can attack the child and endanger his life. If she could drive my son to suicide, she could do the same to the child." According to IANS, he further alleged, "My grandson was an ATM for her. She kept demanding money on the pretext of taking care of him, escalating her demands over time."
