Mumbai: In an unfortunate incident, a Mumbai-based doctor was found lying dead on his bed at his flat in Malad. After an initial investigation, it was found that the doctor might have committed suicide by injecting himself.
Police are still investigating the case to find out the reason behind his unnatural death.
As per a recent media report by the Times of India, the doctor was in his early 40's and he ran a hospital in Dindoshi. During the pandemic, the doctor was living separately in a flat to ensure the safety of his wife and child as there was a high risk of contagion for the doctor.
According to the daily, the doctor had applied for a loan and he was facing financial problems.
On Friday, his wife called to check on him at the hospital and the doctor informed her that he was suffering from a severe headache after which he left. The next day his wife could not contact him via phone. Hence, she visited his hospital also but she could not find him there as well. She ultimately visited his flat finding the doctor lying dead on his bed and also spotted a syringe nearby, reports the daily.
