The discovery was made after the family’s maid noticed the flat locked from the inside and raised an alarm. Authorities later confirmed that Vipanchika’s husband, who had been living separately, was informed before the bodies were found. The child was buried in Dubai by her father’s family, while Vipanchika’s remains were repatriated to Kerala, where a second postmortem was carried out. Allegations of Abuse Based on a complaint by Vipanchika’s mother, Kerala Police registered a case against the husband and his family. Allegations include domestic abuse, dowry harassment, and physical cruelty, even during pregnancy. A six-page handwritten suicide note, allegedly penned by Vipanchika and circulated on social media, detailed years of harassment and pointed fingers at her husband, father-in-law, and sister-in-law.
