The Pune railway police have booked two youths for pushing a 27-year-old share broker Tushar Yashwant Dhake, a resident of Sadashiv Peth to commit suicide. A complaint was registered at 9.30 pm yesterday night.
The duo, Raviraj Deshpande and Sumit Dasani, residents of Sahakar Nagar, had lent money to Tushar for investing in shares.
Tushar's body was found on the Khadki railway track about two months ago.
"My son was under tremendous mental pressure and ended his life on May 15 by jumping in front of the Pragati Express Train at 7.30 pm," he had told the police previously.u00a0
u00a0Senior PI Mahendra Rokade and API Mahendra Bagade are investigating the crime.
According to initial statements Tushar had been running a share trade business with Deshpande and Dasani since the last two years. The accused had lent Rs 1.20 crore to Tushar for investing in shares.
Tushar made some money and returned the amount with interest to both. Despite the payback, the duo harassed Tushar for money. This disturbed Tushar, and he ended his life. PI Rokade said, "We found a suicide note from Tushar's scooter.
It has been sent to hand-writing experts for verification," he said.
