A Bengaluru court Saturday granted conditional bail to the three accused in techie Subhash Atul‘s suicide. His wife Nikhita Singhania, Nikhita’s mother Nisha Singhania, and brother Anurag Singhania were arrested on charges of abetting Atul’s suicide, and are in judicial custody at Bengaluru Central Prison since Dec 16.
They will walk out of jail by Monday afternoon as the court order is likely to reach by then, police sources said.
Following the suicide, Atul’s brother Bikas Modi had filed a complaint accusing Nikhita and her family of demanding Rs 3 crore from Atul to settle a divorce suit and an additional Rs 30 lakh to allow him to have access to his four-year-old son.
Atul, executive at an automobile firm, ended his life in his apartment on Dec 9 after recording a video and leaving a 24-page death note explaining how domestic issues, including eight “false” police complaints filed by his wife and her family against him, pushed him to despair.
