Suspect in GNDU teacher disappearance kills self in Maharashtra
The prime suspect in GNDU teacher disappearance kills self in Maharashtra. It took the police over 12 hours to confirm that he was dead whereas the police could not find out the whereabouts of the victim till date. Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police (City-I) Lakhwinder Singh told that the police had no inkling about the suicide committed by prime accused Jazzinder Singh Virk alias Garry till the team reached there. Garry hanged himself in Amboli, a tourist place in Maharashtra with a suicide note. “There was no official confirmation that the person died was Virk till our teams, which reached the spot gave us a feedback on it,” he said. The incident clearly pointed towards complacency in the police probe considering that the victim had gone with her consent but had also left a note in her room before leaving that stated, ‘she was going to meet garry to get back the money he had borrowed from her. She also mentioned that if anything wrong happened to her, only Garry would be responsible for it.’ Garry’s death had left the family members of the victim worried as the chances of finding her have diminished further. Sukhpraeet Kaur was missing since September 11 while the incident came to light four days later after her father approached the GNDU authorities when he received a ransom message from her reported “kidnapper”. She used to live in GNDU’s faculty accommodation in the campus. The family members themselves had arranged CCTV footages through their sources and hand it over to the police for tracing Sukhpreet Kaur. The police did not take any serious action to find Sukhpreet. He pointed out that if she could not be located beyond Beas or Subhanpur, the police could have launched search operations in these areas to trace her. -PTC News
