In the petition, she had said that Nikita and her family harassed her son for money by trapping him in a false cases, due to which, he had to commit suicide. She also claimed that her grandson is not safe with her.

According to the police, Subhash, who worked for a private firm in Bengaluru, left behind a 24-page purported death note detailing his emotional distress, marital issues, and harassment by his wife, her relatives, and a judge based in Uttar Pradesh.

Following a complaint from the deceased's brother, the police registered a case of abetment of suicide against Subhash's wife Nikita, her mother Nisha, brother Anurag, and uncle Sushil Singhania. However, recently, the Allahabad High Court granted anticipatory bail to Nikita's uncle Sushil in the suicide case.

Subhash's death note, which was also shared with a WhatsApp group of an NGO he was associated with, outlined the marital discord.
