On Tuesday night in a village in Kota, Rajasthan, a company's fire safety officer ended his life by hanging himself. He hanged himself from a fan in a room within his company's township. The deceased officer has been identified as Safan Shah, a resident of Vadodara district in Gujarat. However, the police are currently investigating the matter.
Similiya Police Station SHO Dalpat Singh reported that the deceased was around 35 years old. About a year ago, his wife had committed suicide at her parents' house. It is said he was depressed since then.
For nearly 13 years, Safan Shah had been serving as a senior fire safety officer at Chambal Fertilizers and Chemicals Limited in Gadepan village, which falls under Similiya Police Station.
Further elaborating, SHO Dalpat Singh informed PTI that Safan Shah used to live within the company's township in the same village. On Tuesday night, at some point, he hung himself from a fan in his room within the company’s township. No suicide note was found, and the reason behind the suicide is not yet known.
However, Dalpat Singh mentioned that it appears at first glance that Safan was suffering from depression. He stated that upon receiving the information, the police reached the room and recovered Safan’s body.
On Wednesday morning, after completing the post-mortem, the body was handed over to his family, and the police registered a case of unnatural death under Section 194 of the BNS Act for investigation.
