“We are in the process of accessing his laptops and emails, as he might have mailed someone, indicating his depressed state of mind,” said senior police inspector M Chaudhari of the Santa Cruz police station.
Unable to zero in on any motive behind the alleged suicide of 48-year-old Vodafone vice president, the police are now in the process of accessing his laptop, since they are of the view that it may contain some clues about the exact reason behind the suicide.
“We are in the process of accessing his laptops and emails, as he might have mailed someone, indicating his depressed state of mind,” said senior police inspector M Chaudhari of the Santa Cruz police station.
The officials are also interacting with people Iyer was close to and therefore might have confided in them. “We are trying to identify such people and will be questioning them,” said another officer. The police are also studying why they were not informed about the suicide within the shortest possible time.
Chandra Murli Iyer, 48, was found hanging in his flat at Santa Cruz on Friday. His former colleague and close friend Ankita Rastogi was the first to see him hanging, when she visited his residence in the morning. The matter was brought to the police’s notice about six hours later.
Iyer’s family, meanwhile, allege foul play. They state that he might have been pressurised by someone. Though the police questioned Rastogi for three days, they failed to discover any proof of her involvement. Iyer’s family and Rastogi were known to each other, and they had even met on a couple of occasions.
Iyer, who has been working with Vodafone since 2005, was transferred to Mumbai about a year ago from Delhi. Rastogi, who was his colleague at Vodafone, had moved to Aircel a few months back and had been staying in Delhi. However, whenever she came down to Mumbai for work, she would meet Iyer.
The police also questioned other relatives, friends and colleagues. However, that did not yield any tangible results.
