Atul Subhash with his mother, Nikita Singhania (centre)
The mother of Bengaluru-based AI engineer Atul Subhash, who committed suicide due to alleged harassment by his wife, has received a major blow from the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court rejected the demand of Atul Subhash’s mother and said that her 4-year-old son will remain with his mother Nikita Singhania. The Supreme Court has given permission to Atul Subhash’s mother to approach the lower court to demand the custody of the child.
Child is not safe with Nikita- Atul Subhash’s mother
Let us tell you that Atul’s mother Anju Devi had demanded to hand over her 4-year-old grandson. In the petition, Atul Subhash’s mother had said that Nikita and her family harassed Atul for money by implicating him in a false case. Due to this he had to commit suicide. Now Nikita Singhania’s family is creating obstacles in finding the child. Atul’s son is not safe with him.
The court had given instructions to present the son through VC.
Earlier, the court had directed Atul Subhash’s wife to present her minor son in the court within half an hour. A bench of Justice BV Nagarathna and Justice Satish Chandra Sharma had asked the lawyer appearing for Atul’s estranged wife Nikita Singhania to produce the child through video conference. This is the second time the court has sought to see the child.
Committed suicide on December 9
The body of 34-year-old Atul Subhash was found hanging in his house in Munnekolalu, Bengaluru on December 9 last year. Atul had blamed his wife and in-laws for forcing him to commit suicide.
