A young woman in Uttar Pradesh’s Gorakhpur attempted suicide twice after an obscene, edited version of her photo went viral on social media.
The incident occurred after unknown miscreants allegedly stole her pictures from her Instagram account, edited them in an offensive manner and circulated them widely online. This took a toll on her mental health leading her to attempt suicide.
According to Times of India, the distressing incident occurred shortly after the woman’s marriage was arranged. The incident traumatised her due to which she attempted suicide, however, the attempt was thwarted by her mother.
Upon hearing the incident, her father, who works in Mumbai, rushed back to the village. Despite his presence and support, the young woman made a second attempt to end her life.
Meanwhile, her fiancé has agreed to postpone their engagement to avoid social disgrace.
