Kanpur (The Hawk): Anoop Singh, a suspended sub-inspector who had made an attempt at suicide, passed away while receiving treatment at a private hospital.
The sub-inspector over the weekend consumed a deadly substance in the Police Line, which led to his condition deteriorating and his admission to a city-based private hospital.
The police had earlier asserted that he had used drugs because he was depressed as a result of his suspension.
After two days of investigation, it was discovered that he had spoken with a female constable assigned to a nearby police station.
Tej Swaroop Singh, SP (rural), stated that the situation is being looked into from all sides.
