A 53-year-old Norway national has allegedly accused her neighbours of harassing her over feeding stray dogs in Sector Eta-1 of Surajpur. Being irked over this, she threatened to end her life on Saturday, following which, the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) intervened and called for an inquiry.
