An 18-year-old woman, who married just three months back, allegedly committed suicide by consuming poison at her husband's home at Moirang Shribon Leikai in Bishnupur district yesterday.
The deceased woman has been identified as Naorem Ningol Konjengbam Ongbi Asha alias Mema (18), w/o Konjengbam Tombi (22) of Moirang Shribon Leikai.
According to family sources, Asha married Tombi in December last year.
The couple allegedly consumed poison and they were brought to Moirang Community Health Centre for treatment at around 11.30 pm yesterday.
However, Asha died shortly after reaching the CHC.
Asha's family members claimed that Tombi is a womanizer and his ex-lover even came to live at his home after getting pregnant.
