A tragic case of suspected suicide has unfolded in Delhi, involving a 42-year-old man who left behind a video accusing a local property dealer of harassment. The deceased, Lalit Mohan Varshney, who ran a mobile repair shop in Kailash Nagar, reportedly ended his life after uploading a video implicating Sanjay Jain, a property dealer, in harassment.

According to the Delhi Police, on March 24, Varshney's wife found him attempting to hang himself and rushed him to LNJP Hospital, where he was declared dead on arrival.
