A woman from Uttar Pradesh in India has attempted suicide after her husband discovered her extramarital affair.
The video from Uttar Pradesh shows the woman perched on an electric pole, bound by high-tension wires, after her husband found out about her affair.
A high-voltage drama unfolded in Uttar Pradesh’s Gorakhpur when a man found out about his wife’s extramarital affair. According to reports, the woman first tried to end her life by standing on a railway track. Next, she jumped off from the fifth floor of a building. When all this failed, she climbed up an electric pole in Gorkahpur and hugged it to commit suicide. A video of the woman perched on the electric pole has been doing the rounds on the Internet.
According to a report the 34-year-old woman is a mother of three children. She was in an alleged relationship with a man from a neighbouring village for seven years. When her husband, Ram Govind, found out about her extramarital affair, she demanded that her lover should live in the same house as her husband and suggested that he could contribute towards the household finances. However, when Govind declined her proposal and left the house, the woman tried attempting suicide.
She made three attempts, with the latest being climbing on top of a pole having high-tension wires.
She was however talked out of her plans to commit suicide
