An assistant sub-inspector with Navi Mumbai Special Branch allegedly died by suicide at a lodge in Airoli, leaving a video and note alleging harassment by senior officers. His family protested at a police station, demanding action, while authorities verify the allegations
His statement came at a time when many leaders in the MahaYuti opposed Naik's nomination and refused to campaign for him. However, Naik, who also faces opponents from within the BJP, took aggressive postures today declaring that he is quite capable of weathering this situation.
