A 25-year-old woman died after allegedly falling from a building in west Delhi's Inderpuri area, following which police registered a dowry death case against her husband and his two brothers, an official said on Wednesday.

The incident was reported on May 18 from Dasghara village, they said.

According to police, a PCR call was received regarding a woman having fallen from a building. A police team rushed to the spot and shifted the injured woman to a hospital, where doctors declared her dead.
