The Story in Brief
A 52-year-old veterinary doctor allegedly died by suicide in his apartment in Gorakhpur's Rajendra Nagar on Thursday morning, police said. The man jumped from his flat around 9:40 am and was declared dead on arrival at a hospital.
The doctor had lodged an FIR on August 5 accusing a woman and her associates of cheating him of Rs 1.4 crore. Police said the woman and her father have been arrested in connection with the fraud. The deceased left a suicide note naming the woman, according to NDTV. The circumstances surrounding his death are being investigated.
The Indian Opinion
This tragedy shows how financial fraud can crush a person, but some online commentary is already veering into vigilantism, targeting the accused woman before a trial. The police must focus on due process: the arrested pair should face a fair investigation. The real test will be whether the courts deliver a speedy verdict in the cheating case, or if this becomes another lost file.
