An investigation into a tragic incident involving a young woman's suicide has led to criminal charges against four individuals in India. The 21-year-old reportedly hanged herself after enduring months of alleged sexual exploitation and blackmail.

The case emerged after a court ordered an inquiry into the events surrounding her death. Chief Judicial Magistrate Ashok Kumar Mishra directed the registration of an FIR against the main accused, Kaleem, his brother Haleem, and their parents, Saleem and Sitara.

According to the complaint by the victim's brother, Kaleem had promised marriage, engaged in a physical relationship, and subsequently blackmailed her with illicit footage. Law enforcement officials continue the search for the accused, who remain in hiding.
