New Delhi: The family of a Delhi-based businessman, Puneet Khurana who died by suicide on December 31 has submitted a 59-minute video that he recorded before taking the extreme step. Police are currently analyzing the video and have instructed the family not to release or share it on social media.  

According to sources, the family has alleged that the real reason behind Puneet’s death was a marital dispute and not business-related issues. They claim Puneet had been facing harassment from his wife and in-laws, which he detailed in the video.  

Family Points to Marital Dispute

The family disclosed that Puneet, who was undergoing divorce proceedings, had been deeply distressed due to his strained relationship with his wife and in-laws. “He was harassed to such an extent that he saw no way out but to end his life,” a family member alleged.  

The video, which Puneet reportedly recorded before his death, includes his account of the alleged harassment and his struggles with the situation. The family has urged the police to consider these aspects in their investigation, asserting that his death was not connected to financial troubles.  

Police Investigation Underway

The police received a PCR call at 4:18 PM on December 31 reporting the incident. When officers arrived at the scene, they found Puneet, a 40-year-old businessman, lying unresponsive on the bed with a ligature mark around his neck. “He appeared to have died by suicide,” an officer said.  

Puneet was rushed to BJRM Hospital, where he was declared dead. The body has been preserved for postmortem examination, and the police are working to gather evidence to confirm the circumstances of his death.
