    A 35-year-old woman committed suicide by consuming some poisonous substance allegedly due to harassment over demand for dowry in Muzaffarnagar's Shahpur town, police said today. Fehmida Begum took the extreme step yesterday after a dispute over the phone with her husband Javed, SHO, Kushalpal Singh said. The police registered a case against Javed and three others for abetment of suicide under IPC section 306.

    According to the complaint lodged by the deceased's brother, Javed had been pressuring Begum to demand more dowry from his in-laws. Javed stayed in Odisha for his business-related work. The accused is absconding and further probe into the case is on, police said.
