On Wednesday night, he had dinner with his friends from a joint in the Beed Bypass area. Later on, he told them to go ahead and will return after visiting the college. However, he did not return to the room. Anil ended his life by jumping in front of the train coming from Jalna to Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar on Thursday between 1.30 am and 1.45 am. The loco pilot of the train informed about the incident to the station manager, who then informed the Osmanpura police station.
PSI Kesare and his team reached the spot. The body was sent to Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) for post-mortem. Further investigation is on by police.
He dreamt of becoming an engineer
Police found an ATM card in Anil’s pocket. This helped in identifying the body. The police then contacted the bank and got the details of his family members and informed them. Anil was the single child of his family. His father is a ‘Police Patil’ in the village, while his mother is a housewife. Anil had come to the city to become a successful engineer. The reason for taking the extreme step has not been ascertained. Police feel that he would have ended his life due to failure in a love affair.
