Name of the elder is Narender and name of the younger son was Anoop Singh, who was working in Sahara Company. Near to our house is the house of Puran Rajput and his maternal grand daughter Kanchan lives with him. There was friendship of my son Anoop with Kanchan and the family of Kanchan was annoyed on this. Yesterday i.e. on 18.11.2008, Puran the maternal grandfather of Kanchan, told Kanchan for marrying her at some other place, on account of which Kanchan was not happy and feeling annoyed had gone to her relations. On this, Puran, the maternal grand father of Kanchan and her Mausi and other family members made allegations against Anoop Singh. Today again, maternal uncle Shyam Singh and maternal grandfather Puran Singh and Mausi Santosh, all the three rebuked Anoop Singh in the panchyat that we will not marry Kanchan with you because Anoop Singh does not belong to our 'Biradari' (Community) and Shyam rebuked Anoop Singh that we will teach a lesson for having love affairs with the girl of our family. My son Anoop Singh, today at about 2.00 PM at my house took sulphas (poisonous) tablets under this pressure and when Anoop Singh started vomiting, I asked as to why he is vomiting. My son Anoop Singh told me that Shyam Singh maternal uncle of Kanchan, maternal grandfather Puran Singh and Mausi Santosh hae compelled me to commit suicide and for that reason I have taken poisonous tablets.
