A local BJP leader allegedly died by suicide at his home in Lakhimpur district of Assam owing to a financial crisis, the police said on Tuesday.
The person has been identified as Mithuranjan Das, Laluk Police Station Officer In-Charge (OC) Suraj Doley said.
“After we got a call, our team reached the place and found the body in a room of his house on Monday morning. We have sent it for post mortem and other necessary formalities,” he said.
Das left a three-page, hand-written suicide note, which has details of his financial condition along with names of various people from whom large monetary sums were due, Doley said.
The note in Bengali, a copy of which is available with PTI, is addressed to his wife Tanu. It said lakhs of rupees were receivable from government agencies and individuals.
