BSF personnel's family clueless about suicide motive

PURI: Family members of a BSF personnel, who attempted suicide inside the Jagannath temple here, on Monday said they were clueless about the motive.
Police had found Anjan Kumar Swain (40) in a pool of blood inside the 12th century shrine on Sunday morning after he slashed his throat with a blade.
While police said a suicide note recovered from Anjan Kumar Swain said he was "frustrated with life", his family pleaded ignorance."We don't know the cause of his frustration. He is a bachelor and therefore didn't have any marital problem. His relation with our parents, brothers and sister is also perfect. He is a very nice human being," Anjan's elder brother, Ashok Kumar Swain, said. "He never complained of any problem related to his job. I cannot understand why he tried to kill himself," he added.
Anjan was posted as radio operator with BSF's 120 Battalion in Mizoram. He had joined BSF some eight years ago and served at different places before being posted in Mizoram nearly two years ago.
"Anjan is recuperating slowly and only he can clear the air once he gets well," Ashok said.
"We are also waiting for Anjan to recover so that we can proceed with the inquiry," inspector-in-charge (Singhadwar police station) Arun Kumar Dalei said.
According to reports coming in from Cuttack, the condition of Swain is noe stable. He underwent surgery on Sunday night and his condition is improving, doctors claimed.
"His condition is stable. The operation was sucessful," casualty officer of SCB medical hospital B N Moharana said. Swain is now undergoing treatment in the ENT department of the hospital.
