Narasimha temple priest commits suicide by coming live on Facebook
According to information received from sources, the dispute over the possession of the Narasimha temple in Ayodhya has been going on for a long time. Earlier, an attempt was made to intimidate and threaten the Mahant of the temple by attacking with a bomb. The case of this case is also registered in Ayodhya Kotwali. At the same time, Mahant Ramcharan Das, a veteran of the temple, suddenly mysteriously disappeared from the temple. The case of his sudden disappearance is also registered in Ayodhya Kotwali, till now the police have not been able to find out where Mahant disappeared and what happened to him. Since that time the police is stationed outside the temple and on Monday the dead body of priest Ram Shankar Das was found hanging inside the temple. It is not even known who stopped the Facebook live video of the suicide of 2 minutes 50 seconds before the death.
Police engaged in investigation of the case
Let us tell you that the priest was facing financial crisis after the disappearance of Ram Shankar Das Mahant. Meanwhile, he tried several times to sell some temple items but the police stationed outside the temple and the Raiganj Chowki police did not allow him to do so. After this, he went naked to the Ayodhya police station and created a ruckus and also threatened to commit suicide. The priest was also angry with the action of the police for threatening some people with the intention of taking possession of the property of the registered temple, and due to lack of action, there was often a scuffle between the police and him. Not only this, he often used to consume marijuana in times of trouble. These were some of the reasons why he embraced death live and talked about getting justice and made serious allegations against the police.
