JAMSHEDPUR: Bagbera police have initiated an investigation into the alleged abetment caused in Sunil Kumar Pillay suicide case. Late Pillay was a loco shed technician for the Tatanagar railway.

The authorities have discovered that the businessman, Omprakash Kasera, has left for Kolkata.

An internal investigation is also underway at the Chakradharpur Railway Division.

The incident has sparked resentment towards IOW among railway workers, although they are maintaining silence for professional reasons.

In a tragic incident on June 28, Sunil Kumar Pillay, a railway worker, set himself on fire in protest against the alleged acquisition of property in the Bagbera Traffic Colony by a businessman Omprakash Kasera, as well as the involvement of the RPF and Railway Engineering Department.

Sunil Kumar succumbed to his injuries on July 2.

His wife, Nirupama Pillay, has filed a complaint against the businessman and named Railway IOW RK Singh, RPF Inspector GK Rai, ASI SK Pandey, and Jawan Amarendra Kumar as responsible for abetment.
