The suicide case of Haryana IPS officer Y. Puran Kumar has taken a new turn as his wife, Amneet P. Kumar, has filed an abetment to suicide complaint against several senior officers.

She referred to a nine-page suicide note written by her husband, in which he reportedly named 12 officers and accused them of ongoing harassment and caste-based discrimination. The complaint, filed with the Chandigarh Police on Wednesday night, seeks an FIR under sections related to abetment and the SC/ST Act, alleging that her husband’s death was the result of “systematic persecution” by his superiors.

In her complaint, Amneet said that her husband was a man of “unimpeachable integrity and extraordinary public spirit” but had faced “years of systematic humiliation, harassment, and persecution” at the hands of his superiors.

According to her, this was not a simple suicide case but the result of the “systematic persecution of an honest officer from a Scheduled Caste community by powerful officers.” She has requested the police to register a case under BNS Section 108 (abetment to suicide) and under the SC & ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.

Amneet also mentioned that an FIR was already registered in Rohtak on October 6, which detailed the harassment her husband faced. She said that despite being a senior and sincere officer, Puran Kumar had been repeatedly humiliated because of his Scheduled Caste background. Even after he sought protection under the SC/ST Act, his complaints were allegedly ignored by higher authorities.

Referring to the nine-page suicide note he left behind, Amneet called it “a document of a broken spirit.” She said the note named several senior police officers who allegedly tormented him for years. “My husband’s only crime was honesty in service,” she wrote, urging authorities to take strict action.

Amneet has also demanded the immediate arrest of the DGP and SP, expressing concern that they could influence the investigation. She believes her husband’s death was not just a personal but a reflection of deep-rooted caste bias and injustice within the system.
