According to the police, the couple got married five years ago and soon after the marriage, Priya came to know that her husband was a "gay".
However, in the suicide note she had claimed that she had "accepted it" and was ready to live with it but subsequent torture by her husband led her to take the extreme step, it said.
It said a detailed suicide note was found on the spot and a similar Facebook post made by the woman revealed that her husband's sexual orientation led to sour relationship between the doctor couple.
