Was This Tragedy Avoidable? Newlywed Nurse Deekshya Dahal’s Fatal Fall from 7th Floor Sparks Suspicion
Deekshya Dahal, a 39-year-old nurse, was seen desperately clinging to the edge of a seventh-floor balcony in Parramatta just moments before her fatal plunge. But what led to those harrowing final seconds? And why did it take authorities a staggering two hours to act on a cryptic triple-0 call made from her own phone?
Dahal, a newlywed who had recently celebrated her marriage to husband Labrinda Subedi in Nepal, should have been basking in the joy of a fresh start. Instead, her life ended in unimaginable tragedy on January 2 when she fell from the apartment she shared with Subedi, sustaining fatal injuries. Her body was discovered in a garden bed below, leaving behind a grieving husband and a community demanding answers.
The events leading up to her death remain shrouded in mystery. A triple-0 call from Dahal’s phone two hours before the incident captured only faint, indistinct murmurs—no clear cries for help, no obvious signs of distress. When operators called back, Subedi answered, assuring them that everything was under control. Police were informed and planned to check in, but by the time they arrived, it was too late. A witness had already alerted emergency services after seeing Dahal hanging from the balcony. Moments later, she was gone.
Subedi was questioned by detectives but later released without charges. His family insists that Dahal’s death was a tragic accident, describing the couple as deeply in love and eager to start a family. Yet, with a two-hour gap between the initial call and police arrival, and a dedicated task force now investigating the circumstances of her death, doubts persist.
Investigators are scrutinizing CCTV footage from the apartment complex and nearby buildings, but the central question remains unanswered: Could this tragedy have been prevented? Did someone fail Deekshya Dahal in her moment of greatest need?
As Subedi prepares to lay his wife to rest, the public is left grappling with an unsettling question—was this a heartbreaking accident, or does a darker, more disturbing truth lie beneath the surface?
