Karnataka: The Crime Investigation Department on Wednesday inspected Maharshi Valmiki corporation employee Chandrasekaran's residence after he died by suicide at his residence in Shivamogga.

Chandrasekaran's bag was found during evidence verification. A pen drive, laptop, and other items were found in the bag. His wife Kavitha said that the name of MD Padmanabhan of Valmiki Corporation was on the pen drive.

The family members asked what was in the pen drive, but the officers did not show it. Officers informed that they had to come to the police station after half an hour to sign the confiscated items.

The family members of Chandrasekaran said that this action of the authorities raised suspicion.

Earlier, Karnataka Deputy CM DK Shivakumar said that the Home Minister and Chief Minister have already ordered for an inquiry and whoever may have done this, will be punished.

"We have got the death note. The Home Minister and Chief Minister have already ordered an inquiry, and we have taken it seriously to investigate it. Whoever may have done this, will be punished," he said.

Chandrasekaran (45), a resident of the Kenchappa colony of Vinobanagar was an officer of Maharishi Valmiki Development Corporation and was working in Bengaluru Office.
