A 68-year-old farmer reportedly took his own life after receiving a foreclosure notice from Kerala Bank’s Peravoor branch in Kannur on November 27, 2023.
The body of the farmer, identified as M.R. Albert, was found by his wife when she returned from church in the morning. He was a resident of Kolakkad near Peravoor.
Albert reportedly faced a November 28 (Tuesday) deadline to repay a loan. Desperate to source funds, the family made an attempt to seek financial assistance from Kudumbashree on November 26, but the efforts proved futile.
