The case was registered based on a complaint filed by the deceased woman's brother-in-law, Satish Dhakad, a resident of village Dhanoria. In his complaint, Satish Dhakad stated that Ramswaroop Dhakad, Ramkumar Dhakad, and Darshan Dhakad were continuously mentally harassing his sister-in-law, Pushpa Bai Dhakad, to seize her land.
Victim Consumes Poison, Dies in Bhopal
