Nanjangud: A 47-year-old High School teacher reportedly committed suicide by hanging self in the car shed near his house in the town yesterday night.
The deceased is Shambhulingu, working as a teacher at Koodlapura Government High School and a resident of Ramaswamy Layout, near Devirammanahalli in the town.
Shambhulingu, who went to work yesterday morning, returned home in the evening and again went out. As he did not return even after 7 pm, his family members searched for him and when they went to the car shed near the house, they found him hanging. Though he was rushed to a private hospital, he had breathed his last by then.
It is learnt that about one and a half months ago, miscreants in the guise of delivering courier, had barged into his house, tied the hands and legs of his wife Dakshayini and had decamped with 173 grams gold ornaments. Now, the death of Shambhulingu has given rise to doubts.
Nanjangud Town Police, who visited the spot, conducted mahazar and have registered a case.
