A Saudi woman committed a suicide nearly four months after marriage, leaving a letter asking her father to forgive her and her brother to revenge for her from her cruel husband, a newspaper reported on Thursday.

The unnamed woman from the western town of Taif had fled her home many times because of mistreatment by her husband but had to return under pressure from her father, the Arabic language daily Sabq said.

“She finally left home and went to her uncle’s house after she was beaten by her husband…her uncle told her she can stay at his house,” the paper said.

“When she felt that this will cause trouble between her uncle and her father, she decided to end her life by shooting herself in the head…she left a letter asking her father to forgive her and her brother to revenge from her cruel husband.”
