Shivakumar responsible for his death, Regional Commissioner Dr. G.C. Prakash has issued an order suspending the Hullahalli Deputy Tahsildar.

The protesters also demanded compensation be paid to the family members of the deceased and also a job be provided to one of Paramesh’s family members.

As Paramesh had written a death note alleging harassment from Deputy Tahsildar Shivakumar for his (Paramesh) extreme step, Regional Commissioner Dr. G.C. Prakash, has ordered suspension of the Deputy Tahsildar pending enquiry.

Chamarajanagar MLA Darshan Dhruvanarayan, who visited MMC&RI mortuary in Mysuru, consoled the family members of Paramesh besides assuring justice to them.
