UP: Woman found dead at in-laws' house, family accuses them

India

A young woman, just eight months into her marriage, was found dead at her in-laws' home in Banda, Uttar Pradesh.
Her father says she was killed over dowry demands and then hanged to make it look like a suicide.
The family shared that they had taken loans and gone beyond their means trying to meet the in-laws' requests.

Police have registered a case of dowry death

The woman's father discovered her body and pointed out that her feet were on the ground, raising doubts about the cause of death.
Police have registered a case of dowry death and sent the body for post-mortem.
Authorities say they're collecting evidence and will act once forensic reports are ready, while the family is asking for strict action against those responsible.
