Man commits suicide, leaves note blaming cops for it


JAIPUR: A 40-year-old man committed suicide near Jaipur on Friday and left behind a note blaming two cops for pushing him to take him life as they were "torturing him to confess that he had murdered IRS officer Shriram Meena" (46).

Kamal Meena, who jumped in front of a moving train, was close to the officer's family. Some passerby has seen him walking on railway tracks on Jaipur outskirts before killing himself.

"Kamal's car was found 200m from the railway tracks. While scanning the car, a suicide note was also found in which it was written that senior police officers had tortured him while interrogating in connection with the officer's murder," said a police officer.

He identified the two as additional DCP (East) Yogesh Dadich and Sanagner ACP Rajesh Meel.

ACP (crime) Girraj Meena said Kamal's family had lodged a case on the basis of the suicide note. "The victim was called for interrogation since he was a closely associated with the family of Shriram,'' he said. "After recording his statements, police never called him back. I am of the suicide note. We will fairly investigate whether the note is genuine and if so was the deceased tortured.''

A senior officer said prima facie there was no evidence against Kamal and he was let off.

Some officers termed the note a conspiracy to mislead police in the murder case. "While police were zeroing in on actual culprits, this conspiracy was hatched to divert the attention and making the case more confusing," said a police officer.

Sriram Meena, who was deputy director in central excise intelligence, was found murdered at his residence in Sanganer on Monday.
