By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

A heavily pregnant woman died after falling from the balcony of her home in western Turkey, with police detaining her husband, state news agency Anadolu reported Monday.

Her husband, 37, who was home at the time of the incident with their three-year-old daughter, was taken into custody with police opening an investigation, it said.

Last year, 294 women were killed by men with another 297 dying in suspicious circumstances, such as falling from a balcony — which is frequently classed by the authorities as suicide or an unsolved death.
