Nayagarh, July 21: In a disturbing incident, a young woman allegedly attempted to commit suicide by consuming poison at the Itamati Police Station premises in Odisha’s Nayagarh district on Monday.

The act was reportedly driven by emotional distress following allegations of sexual assault and betrayal by her lover.

According to sources, the woman had previously filed a complaint against her boyfriend, accusing him of rape and deception. The accused was arrested based on her allegations.

Tensions escalated yesterday when a heated dispute broke out between the families of both individuals, prompting police to register two separate cases.

However, the woman remained adamant about marrying her lover.
