AGRA: A 30-year-old government doctor was found hanging at her residence in Aligarh’s Ramesh Vihar colony on Wednesday, with her family members alleging that she was murdered by her husband.

Deputed at the corona cell in Aligarh, Astha Agarwal was found hanging in her bedroom, which was locked from outside, said circle officer (CO) Shwetabh Pandey.

Her husband and two children were not present in the house and the police were trying to find them.

The CO added that the body has been sent for post-mortem examination.

Astha’s uncle claimed that her husband had dropped the children at his elder brother’s house at 12.30am on Wednesday and has been missing since then.

He alleged that the doctor was killed by her husband, Arun Agarwal, who had been harassing her.
