A mother of three children in Uttar Pradesh's Greater Noida allegedly died by suicide on Wednesday. Her in-laws cremated the body without calling in the police.
The woman, aged around 27, had had a fight with her husband in the morning after which she locked herself inside a bathroom of the house. She was later found hanging there, police said.
The woman's brother told the Badalpur Police that she had been killed by her in-laws, said a police spokesperson.
An investigation has been launched into the matter, he added.
The woman, who got married in 2016, had three children – a son and two daughters.
"This morning, she had a fight with her husband after which she went to the bathroom and was later found dead… The in-laws did not inform the woman's family and burned the body," the spokesperson said.
"Once a complaint is received, appropriate legal action would be ensured in the case," the police said.
