Ramakant Sadashiv Rane, committed suicide by hanging himself from the grills on the second floor of MA Podar Ayurvedic Hospital in Worli on Wednesday.
A 50-year-old alcohol addict, Ramakant Sadashiv Rane, committed suicide by hanging himself from the grills on the second floor of MA Podar Ayurvedic Hospital in Worli on Wednesday. Though Rane was admitted to the hospital after a suicide attempt on December 28 when he took an overdose of sleeping pills, no watch was kept on him.
“We got a call at 4.50am on Wednesday informing that a patient had committed suicide at Podar hospital,” said an officer from the Worli police station. A resident of Samta Nagar in Kandivli (East), Rane was a habitual drinker.
On December 28, while he was inebriated, he consumed 25-30 sleeping pills, along with excess amount of alcohol. He was rushed for medical help and was eventually admitted to Podar hospital.
While the doctors at Podar were helping him recuperate from the effects of the sleeping pills, they possibly failed to heal his mind since he was still considering a different way to end his life.
Unaware of death on his mind, the hospital staff was clueless about Rane’s intention when he climbed up to the second floor of the hospital early in the morning on Wednesday. While most patients and the hotel staff were fast asleep at 4am, Rane went to the upper floor with a rope in his hand. “Rane tied the rope to the grill of one of the windows on the second floor and hung himself to death. We sent the body for postmortem to Nair hospital and it was then handed it over to the family,” said the officer.
According to the police, Ramakant was admitted by his cousin who left soon after. “Apart from addiction, he may have taken the step as he was also quite lonely. He was unmarried and both his parents had passed away,” said the officer.
