Baramulla, Nov 11 : In Hadpora, Baramulla, a deeply disturbing incident unfolded when Altaf Ahmad was accused of poisoning his wife, Noorjahan, resulting in her tragic death.
According to Noorjahan’s relatives, she fell ill around 11 p.m. on Sunday morning . Her husband, however, was reportedly playing cricket at a nearby playground at the time.
When a family member informed Altaf about Noorjahan’s condition, he allegedly dismissed the concern, advising them to take her to the hospital themselves as he was “busy.”
Noorjahan was eventually taken to the hospital by her husband’s cousin late that night. Despite the doctors’ efforts, she succumbed to her condition.
Relatives report that Noorjahan and Altaf had a history of conflicts within their marriage, though the couple had recently expressed intentions to reconcile. Allegedly, these disputes often revolved around Noorjahan’s objections to an affair Altaf was reportedly involved in.
According to one relative, Noorjahan confronted Altaf about the affair, leading to further mistreatment.
The police took immediate cognizance of the incident, arresting Altaf Ahmad. Noorjahan’s body was sent for post-mortem at GMC Baramulla to confirm the cause of death, as investigations are actively ongoing.
Noorjahan’s family has issued an appeal to the authorities, urging them to carry out a thorough and swift investigation to ensure justice.
They hope this tragic incident serves as a deterrent, preventing such actions in the future.
