Kasargod, Sep 29: The mortal remains of a woman who died in Kuwait were brought to her hometown Madikai here on Sunday September 29.
Sushma (33), wife of Prakash Krishnan, allegedly committed suicide by jumping off the building she was staying in.
The mortal remains were brought to Mangalore International Airport on Sunday morning and then taken to her house in Madikai.
Sushma's father Kunhi Krishna and others family members were informed about her suspected suicide, and the body was shifted to Pariyaram Medical College Hospital for post-mortem.
Soon after the incident, Prakash Krishnan, resident of Kushalnagar, Kanhangad had told the family members that Sushma had committed suicide.
Kunhi Krishnan, however, has written to Indian ambassador in Kuwait, the Kasargod district police and other officials expressing doubts about Sushma's death.
On the orders of higher police officials of the district, Ambalathara police have registered a case of unnatural death.
Prakash Krishnan accompanied the body during the transit from Kuwait.
Prakash and Sushma had settled in Kuwait 10 years ago. Last Tuesday, Sushma reportedly jumped from the window of their apartment and sustained grievous injuries. She was rushed to hospital but failed to respond to the treatment. The family members back home were then informed.
Sushma's family members have urged police to conduct a thorough investigation into her death.
