Ludhiana village incident: Cop, relative blamed in suicide note? Probe in progress.

Ludhiana: Police have launched an investigation into someone who could be one of their own after a 31-year-old man was found dead in his Bhamian Khurd home, leaving behind a suicide note that alleged harassment by a local man and his relative, reportedly a police officer.Harshdeep Singh, who operated a car wash, was found by his father on Thursday afternoon. According to the victim's family, the suicide note detailed a harrowing ordeal involving a monetary dispute and alleged intimidation at a cybercrime police station.A Discovery in BhamianThe victim's father, Iqbal Singh, discovered his son hanging from a ceiling fan when he went upstairs to call him for lunch. Harshdeep, a former immigration agent, reportedly named a Tarn Taran man and his brother-in-law as the individuals responsible for his distress. Iqbal Singh alleged that the accused had used their influence to harass his son over financial dealings, specifically citing incidents at the cybercrime police station.The InvestigationPolice authorities have formally registered a first-information report (FIR) for abetment to suicide under the Indian Penal Code (IPC). While the family maintains that one of the accused is a serving police officer, investigators are currently verifying these claims. "The cops have lodged an FIR against the Tarn Taran man and his relative," said Inderjit Singh Boparai, assistant commissioner of police (Industrial Area A). "However, the suicide note itself did not explicitly state that any of the accused is a police officer. The probe is ongoing to establish their identities and professions."The investigation is currently focusing on three primary areas: the monetary dispute (the nature of the financial disagreement between Harshdeep and Surinder Pal Singh), station allegations (verifying if the victim was indeed summoned to or harassed at the cybercrime police station as the father claims), and professional status (confirming whether the Tarn Taran man's relative is a member of the police force).No arrests have been made as of Friday morning, and police continue to analyse the handwriting and contents of the recovered note to ensure its authenticity.
