According to Alwal police, the woman had recently brought a pet cat, which led to frequent arguments with her family members.

“Family members were against the pet as they felt its presence was causing allergies,” the police said. Upset over the matter, Princy allegedly hanged herself from the ceiling fan in her flat on the afternoon of March 20 while her family members were out due to work.

When her parents called to check if she had lunch, there was no response. When the neighbours were asked to check on Princy, they found her hanging and called 108 ambulance service.
