Hyderabad: The death of a 35-year-old businessman Mohammed Sardar at
SRT Nagar early Thursday triggered tension in Borabanda as the family members
alleged that the corporator Baba Fasiuddin was responsible for the incident.
Irate family members staged a demonstration at
Borabanda police station demanding stern action against Fasiuddin and others.
They relented after the police assured that necessary action would be taken
against those responsible for the incident.
In his complaint, Mohammed Ibrahim stated that
his elder brother Sardar, who runs a medical shop, committed suicide by jumping
from the third floor of the house leading to injuries on his hand and other
parts of the body. The family members rushed him to a private
hospital in Sanathnagar where doctors declared him dead.
Ibrahim said Sardar was suffering from mental
pressure for the last three months after he started renovation works of the
house. When Fasiuddin started demanding money, Sardar refused to pay heed to
it.
Fasiuddin along with his wife Habeeba Sultana
and his associates came to Sardar’s house and threatened him with dire
consequences. Fasuddin with the help of town planning officials demolished the
third floor of Sardar’s house.
He again came to Sardar’s house and informed
him that it had not yet ended with the demolition. Fasiuddin claimed that the
whole municipal department is in his hands and he would demolish Sardar’s house
from foundation.
Ibrahim further stated that Sardar was under
tremendous pressure believing he was responsible for problems after demolition.
In spite of advising him to be bold, Sardar could not overcome the trauma and
ended his life.
The complaint said that “This has not only
happened with his brother. Many such things have happened in the Borabanda
division.” “The reason for my brother’s death is Fasiuddin, his wife Habeeba
Sultana and personal assistant Saptagiri apart from officers of the Town
planning department,” the complainant said, requesting the police to take
necessary action.
Based on the complaint, the police booked a
case under Section 108 of BNS and took up investigation.
