Bengaluru streets recently saw a truck displaying a powerful message demanding justice for Atul Subhash, a 34-year-old automobile professional who died by suicide in December 2024.
The hoarding read, “Atul Subhash lives in our hearts; justice is due.” This initiative, led by the Save Indian Family Foundation (SIFF), a men’s rights group, aims to shed light on the alleged harassment Subhash faced before his death.
Hailing from Uttar Pradesh, Subhash was entangled in a prolonged legal battle with his wife, Nikita Singhania, over divorce and custody of their four-year-old son. The couple, married in 2019, had been living separately for three years.
On December 9, 2024, Subhash was found deceased in his Marathahalli residence. His 24-page suicide note and an 81-minute video accused his in-laws of harassment, claiming they filed multiple cases against him and demanded ₹3 crore to settle the divorce, along with ₹30 lakh for child visitation.
Following his death, Bengaluru police arrested his wife, her mother, and her brother for abetment to suicide. They were granted bail in January 2025. Meanwhile, a civil court recently approved anticipatory bail for Nikita’s uncle, the fourth accused. The case remains under investigation.
SIFF, known for advocating men’s rights in matrimonial disputes, continues to push for justice.
