Saw a post by Deepika Narayan Bhardwaj on a social media platform, Instagram, about a 19 year old student dies by suicide with caption “INDORE: Suicide by one more innocent boy due to a false rape accusation after a consensual affair with a woman who was much older to him Gaurav, a B Pharma student of first year met Akanksha for purpose of studies and they ended up coming into a relationship Conversation from chats now furnished by the family reveal that she started blackmailing him soon threatening to file a rape case on him. Chats also reveal that it was she who asked him to have sex repeatedly while he expressed disinterest. Gaurav’s family has claimed that she had taken close to 2.5 lacs from him during this period and few days ago made a complaint of rape against him. They were called to the police station where allegedly even police demanded money to sort the matter. Though Gaurav had tried to file complaint against blackmail and harrassment by Akanksha, as it always happens, as a man he was not heard.
Becoming hopeless, he hanged himself to death.”
Who are they, is this for real and also what is the news?
