What Did Atul Subhash Say Before His Suicide?
Atul, in the video he recorded, explained that his wife had filed multiple cases against him and blamed her for his extreme decision. He said, โMy wife has registered nine cases against me. Six cases are in the lower court and three in the high court.โ
He also mentioned that in 2022, his wife filed a case against him, his parents, and his brother, accusing them of serious charges like murder, dowry harassment, and unnatural sex, though she later withdrew the case.ย
Atul Subhash Accuses Judge of Corruption
Atul also accused a family court judge in Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh, of taking bribes from people with cases in her court. He claimed that when he went to court, the judge asked him to settle the case and that his wife had initially demanded Rs 1 crore, later increasing the demand to Rs 3 crore.
When Atul told the judge that his wife had filed false cases, the judge allegedly ignored his complaint and said, โSo what? She is your wife, and this is common.” Atul further claimed that when he pointed out that many people die because of false cases, his wife reportedly said, โWhy donโt you do the same?” The judge is also accused of asking for a Rs 5 lakh bribe to settle the case.
This incident highlights the severe consequences of unresolved marital issues and mental health struggles. Authorities are encouraging individuals facing emotional distress to reach out for help and support.ย
