4 months into marriage, American Express manager dies by suicide in Gurugram

A 33-year-old manager working with American Express was found dead in his Gurugram residence on Friday morning, in what police suspect to be a case of suicide following a minor argument with his wife.

The incident took place in Pyramid Society, Sector 76, where police received information that Rishabh Dixit had died by hanging himself from a ceiling fan. His wife, Sonam Gupta, alerted the authorities.

According to initial investigation, the couple had married just four months ago in a love marriage. Sonam works for a company in Mumbai, while Rishabh was employed as a manager in Gurugram. On Thursday night, the two were speaking over the phone when Rishabh repeatedly requested Sonam to come and stay with him. This led to a minor disagreement between them.

After the argument, Sonam tried calling Rishabh multiple times, but he did not answer. The next morning, she reached their flat in Gurugram, which was locked from inside. When repeated knocks received no response, she contacted society security. The door was then opened, and Rishabh was found hanging.

Police took the body into custody and began an investigation. They confirmed that Rishabh Dixit was a native of Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh. Preliminary findings suggest that the dispute over Sonam not being present with him may have contributed to the incident.

Further investigation is underway.
