Mansi, a social media influencer from Kanpur, was found dead under suspicious circumstances at her in-laws' residence in Lucknow. Her family has accused her husband, Sagar Rajput, and his relatives of dowry harassment, claiming that they demanded additional dowry despite receiving Rs 7 lakh in cash and gifts at the time of marriage in 2024. Following a complaint, police registered a dowry death case against six members of Rajput's family, including his father and siblings. Mansi's family reported that she had communicated her struggles to them multiple times, prompting them to visit Lucknow to mediate. The police are currently questioning Rajput as part of their investigation into her death. This incident highlights the ongoing issue of dowry-related violence in India, where the National Crime Records Bureau reported 5,737 dowry deaths in 2024 alone.
