Mumbai: Police today claimed that the domestic help of Bhojpuri actor Ravi Kishan, who allegedly committed suicide by jumping from a high-rise where the actor resides, might have taken the extreme step as she was "depressed" and felt "lonely" in the city.
22-year-old Rubi Sahani, on Friday, plunged to death from the 14th floor in Garden Estate Apartments in Bangur Nagar area of suburban Malad.
According to sources, the actor and his wife Preeti have been questioned in connection with the incident.
Ruby, who had been working at the Kishans' flat for the past two months, fled to Mumbai from her native place at Mathura in Uttar Pradesh after she could not bear the torture inflicted by her husband and in-laws, they said.
Police said they have also spoken to the actor's neighbours and family members and have ruled out any foul play.
Preeti, in her statement to police, said that the behaviour of the victim was eccentric at times. She would stay away from the house for two to three days and did not say where she had been after returning, Preeti said.
The family members of Ruby have been informed about her death.
The 22-year-old locked herself in the bathroom of the house and then jumped to death, police said. However, no suicide note was found.
