Junagadh: The body of a 28-year-old man was found at his residence at Chorwad village in Gujarat's Junagadh district. The police suspected it was a case of suicide, an official said on Sunday. A suicide note purportedly left by the man was found at the scene. The note stated that he was taking the extreme step due to his in-laws and a Congress MLA. Police inspector KM Gadhvi said the body of Nitin Parmar was found at his house on the intervening night of Saturday and Sunday.
He was rushed to the Chorwad Primary Health Centre for treatment where the doctors declared him dead. "Prima facie it is a case of suicide," he added. The police then sent the body for post-mortem. "The post-mortem report is awaited to reveal the exact cause of his death. The suicide note is under forensic investigation," Gadhvi said.

He further said that the purported suicide note from Parmar's possession mentioned three names, including his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and MLA Vimal Chudasama. Acknowledging that the deceased Parmar was his relative, Chudasama alleged that it seemed to be a case of murder, but was shown as suicide in a conspiracy to defame him.
"The man, who mentioned my name in the suicide note, has not interacted with me in the last two years. He is the son of my aunt. Looking at the injury marks on his body, his family believes that he has been murdered. I think the suicide note is a conspiracy against me. The letter is not in his handwriting. This is a conspiracy by my competitor to defame me," the Congress MLA told reporters. (With Agency Inputs)
