Bhopal Updates: Man Ends Life After Feud With Friend; 55-Year-Old Property Dealer Hangs Self

Man Ends Life After Feud With Friend

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): A man took his own life by consuming poison late Friday night following a dispute with his female friend, Aishbagh police said on Saturday. The deceased, Shakir Ali, aged 30, resided in Ahmad Ali Colony and worked in auto dealing near Bharat Talkies, consumed poison on Friday evening and died early Saturday morning despite receiving medical treatment at Hamidia Hospital.

After postmortem in the afternoon, his body was handed over to his family. Family statements to police revealed that Shakir returned home drunk on Friday evening after consuming poison. After beginning to vomit, his father, Rahbar Ali, approached him with concern. Shakir requested, "Call Uzair bhai, my boss from auto-dealing, who will drive me to the hospital."

Following this, Shakir’s father promptly notified Uzair and took Shakir to Hamidia Hospital, where he succumbed to the poison despite hours of treatment. Reports indicate that Shakir had been involved with a girl from the Aishbagh area, who often pressured him over minor issues.

She would threaten to harm herself or cut her wrists if he did not comply with her demands. In a distressing twist, Shakir's family later discovered an audio message on his phone in which a friend of the girl revealed that she had cut her wrist in anger over the situation. Tragically, Rahbar Ali, now mourning his son's death, is also grappling with late-stage cancer.
