Family says husband demanded ₹10L
According to her family, things turned tense after marriage: her husband allegedly demanded ₹10 lakh and a car, stopped her from sending money to support her mom, and tried to take charge of her salary.
On the day she died, she left work as usual and called her mother at 6pm but never made it home.
