Ahmedabad: Ahmedabad police on Tuesday launched an investigation into the mysterious death of 23-year-old physiotherapy graduate Drishti Prajapati, who was found hanging from a ceiling fan in a hospital room in Naranpura.
Drishti, a resident of Meghaninagar, had been working at Shreeji Wellness in the same area. Her family alleges that she was driven to suicide due to emotional and physical abuse by her former fiancé, Rajinikanth Prajapati.
The Gujarat University police have registered a case against Rajinikanth based on the contents of Drishti’s suicide note. Investigators are now probing the allegations of sexual coercion and emotional torment that allegedly pushed her to take the extreme step.
Meanwhile, Drishti’s grieving family is seeking justice, demanding strict action against those responsible for her suffering.
According to police officials, Drishti had been battling depression after her engagement with Rajinikanth, son of Bharatbhai Nenaji Prajapati from Shahibaug, fell apart.
Her family claims that Drishti had discovered Rajinikanth’s alleged affair with another woman, which had led to the breakdown of their relationship. In a note found at the scene, Drishti reportedly accused Rajinikanth of coercing her into a physical relationship and subjecting her to emotional and physical abuse. Drishti’s mother, Bharti, has stated that her daughter had confided to her about the pressure and threats she faced from Rajinikanth.
The abuse, she claims, escalated after their engagement in April 2024. On the morning of her death, Drishti had informed her family that she was visiting a patient in Shahibaug before heading to work in Naranpura. When she stopped responding to calls, her family grew suspicious. Shortly after, they received a distressing call about her suicide. Upon reaching the hospital, they found her lifeless body and immediately alerted the authorities.
