A tragic case of Bengaluru-based tech entrepreneur Atul Subhash, has led to broad outrage across social media forums. Through a shocking post published to X (formerly Twitter), Atul wrote, “A legal genocide of men is happening in India.” He had tagged major world leaders like US President Donald Trump and Tesla head Elon Musk along with many other prominent public personalities and global leaders in the now-deleted post.
His haunting words, “I will be dead when you will read this,” have left netizens demanding accountability and justice.
A Shocking Suicide Note / Video
Atul had left a detailed 24-page suicide note in which he had accused five people of harassment, extortion, and corruption. The people involved were his wife, in-laws, and Principal Family Court Judge (UP) Rita Kaushik. In his post, he wrote, “I am writing this suicide note in a sound and disposing mind. I am committing suicide today due to the explicit instigation for suicide, harassment, extortion, and corruption of individuals.”
The Viral Video
Before taking his life, Atul recorded a video stating the reason behind his suicide and holding the above people responsible. His plea for justice and the revelations in his note and video have shocked the nation, bringing into question the treatment of men in legal disputes and the accountability of those named in his allegations.
I can sacrifice 100 sons like you for my father. I can sacrifice 1000 of me for you: #AtulSubhash
If his sacrifice doesnt bring men to the streets demanding a National Commission for Men, nothing ever will.
