Pune: An assistant police constable attached to the local crime branch in Ahmednagar district allegedly committed suicide on Sunday morning, said police sources.
Krushna Waghmare’s body was found near a jogging track in the district’s Savedi locality.
According to the police, Waghmare, who had a month left before retirement from active service, left a suicide note saying that “no one be held responsible for his actions”.
“He was of a calm disposition. So, this extreme step is perplexing,” said an officer from the Topkhana police station, where the case is being investigated.
Mr. Waghmare had assisted in drawing up charge sheets in two of the most notorious crimes in the State in recent years: the rape and murder of a girl in Kopardi in July last year, and the triple murder in Javkhede-Khalasa in October 2014.
