With the assistance of his neighbors, he forced open the door and discovered his wife unconscious, a police officer at the Begumpet police station said on Sunday.

The official said that after being taken to a hospital, she was declared dead.

The official stated that an investigation is underway to determine why she took such drastic measures and a case was opened to investigate it.
