Chennai,
The number of people losing money and jewelery in online gambling has increased in Tamil Nadu in the last few months. In this, some suicides are taking place.
An incident has taken place in Coimbatore where a debtor committed suicide after losing money due to online rummy.
Dinesh hails from the Coimbatore area of Chennai. He is 41. He runs a ‘browsing center’ called the Internet Center.
Meanwhile, Dinesh, who runs a ‘browsing center’, spends a lot of time on the internet and social media. As a result, he has developed a habit of online gambling.
In particular, Dinesh, who has become more interested in online rummy, has lost a lot of money in that game. Despite losing money he borrowed and played online rummy. Even so, owning one is still beyond the reach of the average person. Of this, he owes several lakhs of rupees. He is in crisis as the creditors ask for a refund.
In this situation, Dinesh committed suicide by hanging himself on the panel last night at his home in Coimbatore due to the increase in debt.
The suspect’s family broke down the door as Dinesh did not open the door of the room till late in the morning. Then, it was revealed that Dinesh had committed suicide by hanging himself from the panel in the room.
Thus, the shocked family informed the police. Police rushed to the spot and recovered the body of Dinesh who had committed suicide by hanging himself and sent it for autopsy.
Further, a case has been registered in connection with the incident and a serious investigation into the suicide is underway.
Earlier, Manikandan (36), a bank official from Chennai, killed his wife Priya (35), sons Taran (10) and Dahan (1) on the 2nd due to credit crunch caused by online rummy and committed suicide.
