| A matrimonial dispute culminated in a terrible tragedy on Tuesday when an estranged husband shot himself dead after firing indiscriminately at his in-laws' family, injuring four of them in Mukherjee Nagar here.
Twentyfive-year-old Prem Singh, who shot himself in the right temple, died on the spot, while Gulshan (40), Asha (36), Usha (36) and Neha (17) were rushed to Bara Hindu Rao Hospital. They are stated to be out of danger now.
Married last year
According to the police, Prem Singh, a Development Officer with ICICI Bank, and Deepti, a counter clerk at the same branch of the bank, had got married early last year against the wishes of their families. But soon differences cropped up between the two and the couple got separated. Deepti came over to stay with her parents in Mukherjee Nagar and also filed a civil suit to have the marriage declared null and void.
"Prem, son of a retired Class IV employee with MTNL, had a humble background and wanted Deepti to stay with her in-laws in Majra Dabas village. Deepti, the daughter of a jeweller, wanted to stay in the city. This led to frequent quarrels between the two and the rift widened with the passage of time. The two did not stay together even for a single day after the court marriage last year," said Deputy Commissioner of Police (North-West) Manish Agrawal on Tuesday evening.
Not happy
Even the neighbours of the family had no knowledge of their marriage. "The family has been living here for the past 30 years and gets along well with all the neighbours. But very few people knew about the marriage.
