The father of Bengaluru techie Atul Subhash, who tragically died by suicide earlier this week, has revealed that his son had been "broken from inside" due to the ongoing harassment he faced, both personally and legally, from his wife and her family. The 34-year-old deputy general manager of a private company took his life on December 9, leaving behind a 24-page suicide note detailing the emotional and psychological toll of the accusations and legal battles he had been facing.

According to his father, Pawan Kumar, Atul had been under severe strain since 2021, when his wife began filing a series of cases against him and his family. "My son used to say that there is a lot of corruption, but he will fight as he is on the path of truth...He was broken from inside, though he didn't tell anyone anything," said Kumar, who resides in Samastipur, Bihar.
