    Radiculous that he handed over such a lot of money in cash without any proof; undoubtedly, it's black money!

    Looks like this case is too much of like special kichdie, sajjege, bajil, kadle, bajie, padengie mixture. Can't believe that such a influential and rich businessman will end his life at the age of 80 due to the reason of unrecovered loan that too with involvement of political leaders in the transactions. Anyway RIP Bhojanna....

    Disclosure of this information in the personal net worth statement of Bhojanna, as part of his yearly Tax return would probably spill more beans.., provided it is not ill-gotten wealth.., The invocation of MLA into the scene is one more sensational issue...!!!!! Where is Jokaras..????

    As soon as police find one body ,immediately verdict is given without looking right and left like suicide.They know only word suicide.Why cant it be a mord ,or due to his age dead without anyones fault,?Important here is he died in a friends house.He must be having a family and children ?Any part in this from his family?When aperson has money he has many "friends "and well wishers etc.when one has no money hardly anyone looks at him .First make intensive inquiry and let us see.If children want to have their share earlier than usual time ,through someone try to come it earlier.Watch and wait.May his soul rest in peace.Heartfelt sympathy to his family.

    Investigation not even started and tv channels media running story as suicide. Why will big person go to friends house with revvolver to suicide? Are there not enough lodges beaches rivers wells? See how our corrupt system can hoodwink. Friend involved in old gold scheme scam & allegedly taken huge loan fro him now refusing to pay. Who planted story in media this is suicide? Cops? People of Kundapur are supposedly angry at cops & media. Minister must intervene & hand over case to CBI

    May be after some days this will take too much twists. If a person really want to end his life he will do it in his own house. He will not go to his friends house In his 80's he should take rest. Y he is running after lands and business. Is it greed for money.

    There is talk in town that he had gone for loan recovery of 4 crore to friends place who refused to pay & friend was threatened to pay with revolver but in turn was shot himself to look like suicide, now case is being hushed up similar to old gold scheme case by influencial contacts. Thorough investigation needed by CBI

    Most businesses, especially hospitality, have gone for a toss; heavily leveraged businessmen are in dire straits; expect more suicides as country's economic downturn worsens; stock market is getting butchered, retail investors have lost heavily even in recent IPOs like LIC, Paytm etc.

    I agree with you sir...dear Kuju bhaiyya.... Why they do not search happiness within the limits what they have. I felt sad he ended his life sitting in the sit out of his friends house. Something must be there ...secret...Anyway, may the departed soul rest in peace....peace at least in death...He would have lived another 20 years or so. 80 years he lived and now at this age, committing (??) is not advisable...
