case of abatement to suicide was lodged against the two
employees of city-based BD Roadways on the statement of
Ramprakash Pandey’s younger brother who ended his life by
hanging in his office on Friday night.
Deputy superintendent of police Madhusudan Bari said: “In a suicide note the victim has named two of his colleagues—Jitendra and Munna Singh alias Guddu — because of whom he was forced to end his life and the second the allegation was made by the family.”

During the investigation, it was also discovered that the two accused were also pressurising the family to pay Rs 40,000, so that the victim was not thrown out of job. The two employees frequently called the father and younger brother of the victim and threatened of dire consequences if they do not pay the amount.
