The workers of the YSRC showed a letter to the police reportedly recovered from the pocket of Subhakar, in which he claimed that he was ending his life, demanding the release of Mr Jaganmohan Reddy, he added. On Tuesday, Subhakar attended a party meeting where Mr. Jagan arrested was discussed. An emotionally charged Subhakar came home and locked himself in a room and took the extreme step.
