On Friday, in Indiranagar, Lucknow, mobile mechanic Pramod Kumar Varnwal (29) hanged himself from a fan using a cloth string. A cloth was stuffed in the mouth of the youth. The deceased’s brother has accused his sister-in-law and her maternal family of harassing him over property.
It is alleged that the sister-in-law murdered Pramod with the help of someone and hung him to make it look like a suicide. In this case, the police have registered an FIR against the deceased’s wife. Meanwhile, the brother donated the young man’s eyes. The postmortem report states that the cause of death was hanging.
Pramod Kumar, a resident of Jharkhand, lived in Sai Vihar Jarhara in Indira Nagar with his wife Divya Bharti and son Kartik. He has a shop named Perfect Mobile in Kalyanpur. According to his brother Pankaj, Pramod closed the shop on Thursday night and reached home.
At 5 am on Friday, someone informed him that his brother’s body was hanging in the house. When he reached home, his sister-in-law was not there and the door was locked from outside. When Pankaj entered the room by pushing the door, he saw Pramod hanging from the fan with the help of a cloth string. Pankaj told that a cloth was stuffed in his brother’s mouth. The police reached on information and sent the body for post-mortem.
