GUWAHATI: Upasa Phukan, 28, daughter of ex-Assam home minister, late Bhrigu Phukan, died Sunday after falling from a two-storey building in Guwahati’s Kharghuli area, police said. Latasil police said preliminary reports suggest she jumped to her death.
Jyotishman Neog, head of Latasil PS, said Phukan was suffering from mental health issues, which may have led to her taking the drastic step. “During our investigation, we received information suggesting that she was depressed. Further investigation is on at the moment,” Neog said.
They have filed a case of unnatural death. The body was transferred to GMCH for postmortem examination.
