Siliguri, Feb. 16 -- A businessman allegedly jumped into the Mahananda Canal, leaving behind a note that read "justice for sister." Police have started a search operation. However, at the time of filing this report, the police were unable to recover the body.
The man has been identified as Manoj Dalmia (48), a resident of Milanpally in Ward No. 26 of Siliguri. He has been running a stationery shop at Mahabirsthan.
According to sources, Dalmia left his home on a scooter on Sunday and headed straight to Phansidewa. He parked his scooter beside the Mahananda canal and reportedly wrote a suicide note before taking the step.
The contents of the note - particularly the line "Justice for Sister" - have sparked speculation. However, his family refused to comment on this.
