    sad to hear. but I wonder will this be a legal issue ? Will this husband and the sister-in-law can be booked ? Is there any death note Shobha Sukla left behind. If not, who narrated the story to police and media ? I am just thinking from a different angle, if it's a trap ? or else, yes I understand the pain Shobha has gone through seeing them in compromising situation. This could have been handled with in family and sorted out. Why this has to be considered as a legal issue ? Whether everybody in the family accepting this fact that Shobha's husband was in relationship with his bro's wife ? What bro says ? So many questions left unanswered. Now just Shobha committed suicide , we can not blindly put complete blame on her husband. yes, if investigation also reveals same truth, then yes, I am with law and order to punish both shobha's husband and sis-in-law. Unless it's proven, not sure if I can comment just blaming the husband and sis-in-law.

    I don't think that just behalf of complain any news can justify that it is matter of sleeping with sister...how any lady can do suicide if she have number of option to come out with problem ..she were able leave the family and were able to go at her own home and as per observation she got married 12 yes back and her child age is 10 years....unnecessary wrong statement mentioned in news without knowing that what is truth???? Pls stop blaming until justice....might she got disturbed due to silly things and did suicide because after 12 yes of marriage how any Lady can do that is she saw such scene....and when she did suicide no one was there in flat and her husband was in office from morning and she did suicide in noon.
