The Mumbai police in its inquiry of the suicide case of a woman, who is also a Punjab & Maharashtra Co-operative Bank(PMC) account holder has said, the case does not seem to be related to the bank fraud.



The woman, who was a doctor had allegedly committed suicide on Tuesday by taking an overdose of sleeping pills. The Mumbai police said that as of now the suicide does not seems to be related to the PMC bank case. According to the police, the woman was under depression for a very long time.



The woman is identified as Nivedita Bijlani. The 39-year-old woman first got married in 2001 from which she has a 17-year-old daughter.



Nivedita's father has said she had earlier attempted suicide in March 2018 in America. She was suffering from depression and was undergoing treatment after coming back to India.



On Tuesday, Nivedita overdosed herself with sleeping pills. Her father saw her and rushed her to the hospital where she was declared dead.



According to the police, Nivedita has a PMC bank account but they are ruling the possibility of the suicide-related to it.



DCP Paramjit Dahiya said, "It is not related to PMC so far. The police, however, will investigate all possible angles. She might have taken sleeping pills yesterday and was discovered unconscious by her father in the morning."



The police are investigating the matter.
