Virar High-Rise Deaths: Police Link One Student’s Suicide to Love Affair as Probe Into Friend Continues

Police now cite a suicide note pointing to a failed relationship as motive, with relatives questioning the finding.

Overview

  • Two final-year college friends were found dead late Monday after falling from the 18th floor of an under-construction building in Bolinj, Virar West.
  • Officers registered an accidental death report, conducted a panchnama, identified the youths via a bike registration number, and began reviewing CCTV and mobile data.
  • Police now say they recovered a suicide note at a residence that attributes one victim’s decision to heartbreak following a failed relationship.
  • Investigators say they have not found evidence of third-party involvement, while both families allege foul play and had the bodies moved to JJ Hospital for further post-mortems.
  • Authorities are examining why both died together, citing possibilities that the second youth either took his own life in solidarity or fell while trying to intervene.
