Suspended constable kills self

Hyderabad: A 45-year-old Telangana State Special Police (TSSP) constable committed suicide at his house in Borabanda due to financial problems on Wednesday night. The deceased M Rajeshwar, 45, was a constable of TSSP Battalion at Yousufguda. Sanathnagar police said Rajeswar was suspended two months ago for poor attendance due to alcohol addiction.

He was staying at home at Rama Rao Nagar, Borabanda with his wife and two children. For Sankranti, Rajeshwar’s wife and children went to their native place in Nagarkurnool. Around 9pm, Rajeshwar called his wife and said he wanted to commit suicide. Rajeshwar’s wife requested their landlord to check on her husband.

“The house owner along with others went to check. They peeped from the window and found the constable hanging from the ceiling fan in the hall. In the suicide note, he said he decided to end his life due to debt and asked family members to take care of his children,” Sanathnagar SI Paidi Naidu said.

Police said Rajeshwar ended up in debts due to alcohol addiction. A case was registered under Section 174 (Suspicious death) of the CrPC.
