When the team of First Bihar contacted Piro police station regarding this incident, the Thanedar said that “Three days ago the woman was brought to the police station for questioning.

She was brought in the morning of 9th September on Teej day. She died today on 12th.” It is over. There was no FIR against her, nor was her name mentioned in any application as per the first Bihar News Channel.

The woman was not an accused in any case. Just had brought her to the police station for questioning for three days.”

Why and in which case the woman was brought to the police station for questioning?

On hearing this question, the SHO disconnected the phone and did not give any further information related to this incident.

After talking to the Thanedar, the team of First Bihar spoke to Bhojpur district’s SP IPS Vinay Tiwari.

Police Captain Vinay Tiwari told that “The woman Shobha Devi has committed suicide by hanging herself in the police station. She was not kept at any woman’s (constable)’s house. The woman committed suicide by hanging herself in the police station itself. A few days ago a Murder happened. The woman was brought for questioning in the same case.”

The woman was brought to the police only based on suspicion or was there any FIR against her, did anyone apply?

The police had kept the woman after bringing the woman to the police station for three days only for questioning?

An investigation is going on. Everything will be clear only after the investigation report comes.”
