PUNE: Police booked
former Pune deputy mayor and sitting NCP corporator Dipak Mankar on charge of
abetting suicide of a 53-year-old man and arrested five persons in this regard.
Mankar, along with city-based builder Sudhir Karnataki and
five others were allegedly named by the deceased Jitendra Jagtap in a suicide
note purportedly written by him, a police officer said. Jagtap, brother of Pune
Police personnel, allegedly killed himself by jumping in front of a running
train near here on June 2.
As per preliminary investigation, Jagtap and Mankar were
locked in a land dispute in Pune and the former had claimed that Mankar and
others were harassing him, according to the officer. "Based on the suicide
note, we booked Mankar and others on charge of abatement of suicide and so far
we have arrested five people in the case," the senior officer of Samarth
police station said.
He said police had gone to Mankar's residence after a case was
registered but he could not be found.
