Officer's injuries self-inflicted?

JAMMU: When Captain Chaitanya Bhatwadekar, husband of late Captain Megha Razdan, regained consciousness, he contacted his commanding officer, who rushed him to the military hospital and informed the police.
Army spokesman Colonel S D Goswami told TOI that a case had been registered under Section 323 and 343 with the Gangyal police station. "The tongue has been cut at the tip and has a blood clot.The doctors have advised him to stay in hospital for a day or two to avoid complications. But he is out of danger," said another officer. However, late in the evening, he was discharged from the hospital.
Sources with knowledge of the incident said it was difficult to believe that an officer could be waylaid close to his unit in such a brazen manner and then attacked. They speculated the wound might have been "self-inflicted" to deflect the investigations into his wife's death.
Bhatwadekar has been under tremendous strain since his wife was found hanging in the officers' quarters at Kunjwani Talab on the outskirts of Jammu on July 2.
While police have been conducting its own investigation, the Army too has been trying to the get to the bottom of her death. Defence minister A K Antony has asked for a thorough probe into the incident.
Megha's parents, who live in Pathankot in Punjab, have also met Antony and the Army chief, General J J Singh, apart from petitioning the President, urging them to speed up investigations into their daughter's death. The parents insist that it wasn't a case of suicide, as the Army has been saying. Local police also suspect foul play.
Megha, who married Bhatwadekar four months before her death, left a note saying she was "not happy with the Army way of life". She had reportedly said she wanted to "leave the world as well as the Army" and the note said she was fed up with her seniors.
Megha's father, Arun Kumar Razdan, when contacted for comment, said he didn't know who could have attacked his son-in-law, but added that he did know that the officer had a scrap with a local barber recently.
