A tragic incident in Maharashtra’s Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, where three members of a family died after falling from a hill cliff on Friday (August 21), has taken a new turn. The maternal aunt of Kunal Chandgude, 19, has claimed that the teenager never intended to take his own life, but wanted to persuade his father to return home.
She also rejected reports that the incident was connected to a mobile phone. “Kunal wanted his father to come back home. It was not such an expensive issue. She also claimed that Kunal did not want to commit suicide; instead, he wanted to convince his father to come back home. “I do not think Kunal wanted to commit suicide. He only wanted to make his father emotional and convince him to return home,” Dabhade added. He asked his father to come back home. But his father spoke about his own parents and sisters. Kunal was young and probably could not understand all of this. The misunderstandings kept growing, and he was worried.”
Dabhade told reporters that the 19-year-old wanted his father to come back home. If he wanted a phone, he could have bought a second-hand one for ₹ 20,000-25,000.
She also said that Kunal had one phone for his studies, while his mother also had one. “It was not about a phone,” Dabhade added. Recalling a recent conversation between Kunal and his father, she said, “Kunal and his father spoke five or six days before the incident.
