New Delhi: A 31-year-old doctor at AIIMS allegedly committed suicide by slitting her wrist with a sharp-edged object after her husband started mentally torturing her after she learnt that he was actually gay. Failed marriage, breach of trust and hiding of the sexual orientation by her husband forced Priya Vedi to commit suicide in a hotel room in central Delhi's Paharganj locality.

Her body was recovered by a police team from her room, police said. Before taking the extreme step, Priya Vedi, a senior anaesthetist at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) here, wrote a note on her Facebook account and also left a suicide note alleging that her husband was gay and he used to torture her.
