A 34-year-old woman died by suicide after her husband refused to let her go to a salon in Madhya Pradesh's Indore district, the police said on Saturday.

The incident occurred under Aerodrome police station limits in the city on Thursday. The woman was identified as Reena Yadav, a resident of Scheme-51.

Investigating officer Uma Shankar Yadav said that the woman married Balram Yadav about 15 years ago.
