A 42-year-old man was found dead by police in Amrutahalli near Jakkur in north Bengaluru on Tuesday. The deceased has been identified as Mohan Kumar, a painter.
A few days ago, the VV Puram police arrested Kumar’s brother-in-law Nitin in connection with the theft case, and seized the gold allegedly kept in Kumar’s house. Kumar and his family had denied involvement in the crime. However, Kumar’s wife says that she was threatened by Sandeep, who filed a claim in the VV Puram case, to return the gold he alleged was missing from the one found by the police.
The woman also said that being upset by this, Kumar committed suicide. His body was found in a vacant lot near Jakkur Double Road.
Police investigations are continuing in this case and a case of attempted suicide has been opened against Sandeep.
