Overview
- Jeet Rasikbhai Pabari was discovered unresponsive at his Rajkot home on November 26 and was declared dead on arrival at a private hospital, after which his body was sent for post-mortem.
- Malviyanagar police have opened a formal case and ordered a forensic examination of the residence, and officers plan to record statements from family members when possible.
- ACP B. J. Chaudhary said it would be premature to draw conclusions before forensic and post-mortem findings, and the home remains an active crime-scene assessment site.
- The date coincides with the November 26, 2024 FIR by a former fiancée alleging forced sexual relations under promise of marriage, a case that moved through anticipatory bail and a chargesheet.
- Police sources and multiple reports note Pabari had been under significant stress during the past year, though any link to Wednesday’s events remains unconfirmed; some outlets report hanging, a detail not officially verified.
