2nd note found in Lingayat seer’s suicide case: Police
Hindustan TimesRamanagaram police probing the alleged suicide of a Lingayat seer have recovered another suicide note on Thursday. Police on Wednesday said it recovered four video clips involving a prominent seer found dead in his monastery three days ago and detained three people for questioning, hinting that the 45-year-old man may have been blackmailed before his death. “We are probing the suicide from all angles, including the honey trap.” A senior police officer said on condition of anonymity that the videos, which were uploaded on social media, purportedly showed the pontiff with a woman in a video call. “After the seer did not open the door and did not respond to repeated phone calls, a staff member broke open the door and found him dead,” said a senior police officer, requesting anonymity.
