umpired at the district level
for Lucknow Development Authority (LDA), Railways and some local clubs committed
sui cide by hanging himself here on Tuesday. The cricket player was identified as Shivesh Ranjan Ma jumdar, a resident of sector E of Rajajipuram under Talkatora police circle. Shivesh was also working in the LDA on ad-hoc basis for the past seven years under sports quota, apart from doing umpiring in the district-level matches. On Monday too he had umpired in a couple of matches.
Shivesh's father talking to TOI said,"On Monday night Shivesh came drunk to the house and went upstairs in his room. Till around 11 in the morning he did not come down. A phone of one his friends came on my cell phone and his friend told me that Shivesh was not picking up the call."
After this the parents rushed up stairs to call Shivesh but despite repeated attempts he did not re spond. It was now that the police was informed and they too had to enter the house by climbing from the balcony portion. The cops peek ing inside from a ventilator saw Shivesh's body hanging from the ceiling fan and then broke the door open to get the body down.
The police also found a three- page suicide note from the room. In the note Shivesh had mentioned various reasons because of which he was not satisfied with his life. In the note he wrote, "I am responsi ble for the step I am taking and no body in my family should be haras sed for it. I work in LDA for a small salary of Rs 3,000, which is very less to survive and hence I am com mitting suicide."
Shivesh's father Gopal Majum dar who retired last year as an elec troplate operator from a private battery manufacturing firm said,"Apart from his poor financial condition, the police have also told us that Shivesh hanged himself as he was not happy with his wife Vandana and his in-laws."
Gopal added that Shivesh got married to Vandana in April 2007. For one year every thing was fine but then their relations turned sour and Vandana also left their two-year-old daughter Mishti with them. Since June 30, Vandana was living with her parents who also live in the same area.
Gopal also said that his beha viour recently towards him was not good as he was not satisfied with his financial status. "Shivesh a couple of ago had asked me for Rs 5 lakh. He told me that there was a vacancy in Mandi Parishad and in order to get that job he needed to pay the money to the concerned people but I refused him to pay the sum as I am also a retired man now and don't have that much of mon ey."
The police later sent the body for postmortem examination after keeping the suicide note with them.
