A family dispute in Karnataka took a disturbing turn when a man attempted suicide during a Facebook Live, alleging harassment by his wife and her relatives. The incident occurred under the jurisdiction of Jayanagar Police Station.

The man, identified as Salman Pasha, had recently returned to India after working as a hydraulic mechanic in Kuwait. He married Syed Nikhath Firdose four years ago. Police sources stated that the couple lived happily for two years, but tensions arose after Salman went abroad for work while his wife was pregnant with their second child.

Following his departure, Nikhath reportedly moved to her maternal home, triggering disputes between the couple. In his video, Salman accused his wife, her family, and her relative, Syed Burhan Uddin, the Tumakuru District President of AIMIM, of mental harassment and pressuring him for money.

He also alleged that his wife had an illicit relationship with Burhan Uddin and denied him access to his two children, even after his return from abroad.

In an emotional Facebook Live video, Salman stated that the women’s police station had taken sides with his wife’s family and claimed, “I had earlier been jailed in a false case filed against me.” Shortly after, he attempted suicide and was rushed to Tumakuru District Hospital, where he is currently receiving treatment.

Salman’s family has filed a complaint with the Superintendent of Police, seeking a fair investigation.

Wife Denies Allegations
Salman’s wife, Syed Nikhath Firdose, strongly denied all allegations, calling them “false and fabricated.” She said, “Earlier too, he had created drama by pretending to drink soap water, he has threatened to pour acid on me at my workplace. I had already filed a complaint about his threats. Now he is only trying to create drama to gain sympathy.”

Police confirmed that investigations are ongoing and that statements from both parties will be verified before further action is taken.
