**Karnataka: Man Attempts Suicide During Facebook Live, Accuses Wife and AIMIM Leader of Harassment**
A domestic dispute in Karnataka took a dramatic turn when a man attempted suicide during a Facebook Live broadcast, accusing his wife and her relatives of harassment and infidelity. The incident occurred within the Jayanagar Police Station limits in Tumakuru district.
The man, identified as Salman Pasha, had recently returned to India after working as a hydraulic mechanic in Kuwait. Salman married Syed Nikhath Firdose four years ago. According to police, the couple lived peacefully for two years before tensions arose after Salman went abroad for work and his wife was pregnant with their second child.
### Accusations Made During Facebook Live
In the live video, Salman alleged that his wife, her family members, and her relative Syed Burhan Uddin—who is the Tumakuru District President of AIMIM—subjected him to mental harassment and financial pressure. He further claimed that Nikhath was involved in an illicit relationship with Burhan Uddin and that she prevented him from meeting his two children upon his return to India.
Salman also accused the women’s police station of being biased, alleging that officers supported his wife’s family. He mentioned that he had previously been jailed in a false case.
Shortly after making these allegations during the live stream, Salman attempted suicide. He was rushed to Tumakuru District Hospital and is currently receiving treatment.
Following the incident, Salman’s family filed a complaint with the Superintendent of Police’s office, demanding a fair and impartial investigation.
### Wife Rejects Allegations, Calls It ‘Drama’
In response to the accusations, Syed Nikhath Firdose denied all claims, calling them fabricated and an attempt to gain sympathy.
“Earlier too, he created drama by pretending to drink soap water. He has threatened to pour acid on me at my workplace. I had already filed a complaint about his threats. Now, he is only trying to create drama to gain sympathy,” she said.
### Police Investigation Underway
Police have confirmed that an investigation is currently underway. Statements from both parties will be verified before any further action is taken.
