In a suspected suicide case, a 55-year-old woman judge’s body was found hanging at her official residence in Chhattisgarh’s Mungeli district on Sunday. Mungeli District and Sessions Judge Kanta Martin’s body was found hanging from a fan with a saree inside a room, SP Arvind Kujur said.
As per preliminary information, after having food on Saturday, the judge asked her staff to leave the house. “When the cook came on Sunday, he found the door locked from inside. He saw from the window that the judge’s body was hanging,” Kujur said. According to her staff, she was apparently under depression following her husband’s death last year. — PTI
