Soon after, he became suspicious when she repeatedly deleted UPI apps from her phone and frequently demanded money while he was on duty.Lovach told police he attempted suicide twice due to pressure and threats from Divyanshi and her associates.Earlier, Divyanshi had created a ruckus at the Police Commissionerate, accusing her husband of harassment, infidelity and misappropriating ₹14.5 lakh.Her counter-complaint triggered a parallel inquiry. However, digital evidence and past records indicated a pattern, the police said.She had earlier filed three rape cases against government employees, all ending in compromise, and several other FIRs that were later marked false, they said.The police are now tracking the money trail and examining the role of officers who may have supported or benefited from the racket."The evidence indicates an organised network.
