Nisheeth was arrested by the police on charges of abetment after Bidisha’s father, Ashwini Kumar Bezbaruah, accused him of having an extra-marital affair, which pushed his daughter towards suicide. In an official complaint to the police, Bidisha’s father said,

“She was not happy in her marriage and things turned worse in the last few months. It was around 9 p.m. on Monday when I received a call from the police that my daughter was found hanging in her flat. On the same day, she had called me around 5 p.m. and said she wanted a divorce. I asked her to be calm, but she refused to listen and disconnected the phone call, saying `let me take my own decision’. I immediately called up her husband in Mumbai, asking him to be with her, but he flatly refused. After a few hours, we got this unfortunate news.”

 

He also added that she had told her mother and brother about the extra-marital affair.

 

An FIR has been registered against Nisheeth under Section 306 (abetment to suicide) of the IPC at Sushant Lok police station. Nisheeth was on a work-trip in Mumbai at the time of the incident. Bidisha’s body was found at her flat (number 91) at Sushant Apartments in Sector 43, Gurugram.

 

Bidisha was quite known in the Assamese TV industry and had recently moved to Gurugram with her husband. The two got married on April 28, 2016.
