docHyderabad: Case of firing at partner at Hyderabad takes another turn when the accused committed suicide at his farm house on the city outskirts, police said.

Shashi Kumar, 40, shot himself with his revolver at the farm house at Nakkalapalli in Moinabad mandal of Ranga Reddy district around midnight, police said.

A police party, who had reached there around 1 a.m. to arrest the doctor, found him dead. Police also found a bottle of poison and it is suspected that he shot himself from revolver after failing in his first attempt to end his life.

Shashi Kumar, in his suicide note, claimed that he did not open fire on Udai Kumar and blamed another doctor and their partner Sai Kumar. He wrote that he escaped and committed suicide due to fear of being implicated in the case.

The firing incident had occurred in a car in Himayatnagar area in the heart of the city on Monday evening. During an argument over the management of a hospital, they had opened in the city recently, Shashi Kumar allegedly opened fire from point blank range on Udai from his licensed .32 mm revolver.

Udai escaped with injuries under left ear. He was admitted to a hospital and his condition is stated to be stable.

Shashi Kumar, a general physician and surgeon, had escaped after the incident and the police had launched a hunt for him.

The doctor called his wife over her mobile to say sorry before taking the extreme step. In his suicide note, he named the partners for betraying him and called for punishing them.

The three doctors along with some other partners had set up Laure Hospital in Madhapur in the city last month with an investment of Rs.15 crore. Udai had invested Rs.3 crore, Sai Rs.2.90 crore and Shashi Kumar, who already owns a hospital at Chaitanyapuri, invested Rs.75 lakh. Some NRIs were also roped in as investors for the project.

Shashi Kumar was unhappy as Sai and Uday had become CEO and managing director respectively. He had called the duo to a restaurant in Himayatnagar for talks on Monday. Since there was no place in the restaurant, they parked the car in a lane and were discussing the issue.

Police had booked Shashi Kumar for attempt to murder. A case under Arms Act was also registered against him.

A police officer said Shashi Kumar apparently got into severe depression as he was afraid that the case would mar his reputation.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
