Kolkata: The 25-year-old bank executive body of Hyderabad – head wrapped in a polylic bag and hose pipe set for a helium gas cylinder injected in plastic – found on his bed in Salt Lake on Monday afternoon.
Identified as P Samwrith, Amberpet residents in Hyderabad, civil engineers were employed as a technical manager with private banks since August last year.
The police said they had found a “suicide note” of two pages from his room where he had written a long way about depression and back-to-back death from several family members and signed saying “I stopped” and no one was responsible for death.
The police have sent the body to post mortem and check the authenticity of handwriting on the note.
Samwrith depression after several deaths at the Familyhis of two compatriots of colleagues, who found the body, was questioned for hours at the police station Bidhannagar North.
Forensic officials say helium, inert gas, is often used for suicidal purposes because of its broad availability online as part of the party balloon kit and the ability to cause death short of breath.
Samwrith’s colleague had told the police that they both went to work on Monday morning but he had lived behind.
They knew he was depressed and they called to check it several times but he did not answer the call.
The colleagues then returned home and opened the main door with a duplicate key they had with them and walked to his room to find him unconsciously – a plastic bag on his head and a large cylinder of helium gas on his bed.
“We found the young man fainted and sent him to the Subdivisional Bidhannagar Hospital where he was declared dead by a doctor who was present.
Even though we had received a suicide note, we checked his handwriting and had sent the body to check the post mortem to find the right time and cause Death.
We also tried to find out how the young man bought a helium cylinder, “said a senior officer of Bidhannagar Commissioner.
A senior official of the private bank where Samwrith was hired said everyone in his family – a parent, brother and recently his sister – died in Hyderabad and it made him very depressed.
“It seems like he doesn’t have anyone else in his family.
One of his close friends will come to get his body on Tuesday,” he said.
