A 32-year-old chartered accountant committed suicide in Mumbai on Tuesday after allegedly being blackmailed into paying over Rs. three crore in the last few months, media reports said.
According to reports, Raj Leela More consumed poison and left a three-page suicide note, blaming two people for his death who threatened him to leak his private video.
The note blamed Rahul Parwani and Saba Qureshi for extorting crores of money from More in the last 18 months by threatening to circulate the video.
As per reports, the accused were aware of More's huge investments in the stock market and his high-paying job as a Chartered Accountant.
They forced him to transfer a huge amount of money from his company's account to their personal accounts.
The two accused even forcibly took a luxury car from him.
More's mother told the police that her son had been under extreme mental stress over the past few months.
Police recovered a three-page suicide note from More's room, of which one was for to his mother. In that note, he apologised and asked his family to take care of themselves.
On the second page, More wrote to his colleagues.
"Deepa Lakhani, today I have no words to apologise, because I broke your trust. But believe me, this was the last time. I had no intention to break your trust. Whatever fraud I did, I did it myself; no one came to know anything. I did not manipulate the statement (account). Shwetha and Jaiprakash had absolutely no idea about what was happening. Please do not take any action against them," he wrote.
He blamed Rahul and Saba for his death in the third page.
"I, Raj More, am committing suicide today. Rahul Parwani is responsible for my suicide. He manipulated me and blackmailed me for months. He forced me to break my savings and stole money from my company account. Rahul Parwani and Saba Qureshi are responsible for my death," he wrote.
The police have filed a case of extortion and abetment to suicide against the two people, but no arrest has been made so far.
