Mumbai, April 1: In a tragic incident, a 17-year-old girl died by suicide just a day after her 24-year-old boyfriend ended his life following a dispute over a proposed live-in relationship in Palghar's Naigaon. The couple, who had been together for a year, faced mounting pressure as the man urged the girl to leave her family home and move in with him.

On Saturday night, after a heated argument at his residence, the boyfriend threatened to end his life if she did not agree to his demands, Hindustan Times reported. Believing it to be an emotional outburst, the girl left, only to find out the next day that he had hanged himself.
