    A coroner's urging women in abusive relationships to seek help - in a report into the self-inflicted death of a migrant woman

    A coroner's urging women in abusive relationships to seek help - in a report into the self-inflicted death of a migrant woman


    Tina Singh, also known as Tina Sharma, died suddenly at her Christchurch home in 2017 - three months after coming from India.

    An inquest last year heard evidence her husband, Narinder Singh, was controlling and abusive - allegations he denied.

    Coroner Alexandra Cunninghame has ruled out initial fears her husband was responsible.

    But she says argument on the night of Tina Singh's death was the final straw - in an unhappy marriage where she had experienced arguments and violence.
