A tragic incident in Maharashtra’s Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, where three members of a family died after falling from a hill cliff on Friday (August 21), has taken a new turn. The maternal aunt of Kunal Chandgude, 19, has claimed that the teenager never intended to take his own life, but wanted to persuade his father to return home.
Kalyani Dabhade, maternal aunt of Kunal and sister of his mother Sangita, dismissed reports suggesting that her nephew took the extreme step due to EMIs on an iPhone, according to news agency PTI. Speaking to reporters, Dabhade clarified that Kunal was distressed by the misunderstandings and tensions between his parents.
