Abhijeet Bapurao Dudhane, a prominent builder of the city, committed suicide by jumping off an eight-storey building in Jaitala area on Sunday afternoon. Dudhane (49), a resident of Tatya Tope Nagar, was well-known in the construction world. He leaves behind his wife, daughter, and two brothers, all of whom are devastated by his tragic death. The last rites were performed Ambazari ghat. The incident took place in the Orbital Empire Phase 3 in Jaitala, an area still under construction with a few occupants. According to the police, Dudhane took the elevator to the eighth floor of the building. At approximately 12.30 pm, a woman residing on the fourth floor reported hearing a loud thud, and checked. She discovered Dudhane lying injured with a carton of milk nearby. She immediately informed the MIDC police, and the police arrived at the scene.
 
A profusely bleeding Dudhane was rushed to a hospital, where doctors declared him dead upon examination. The incident has sparked numerous questions regarding the circumstances leading to Dudhane’s presence in the building and the nature of his tragic fate. While the police have initiated their investigation and registered a case of accidental death, several questions have emerged in the wake of this incident. Friends and acquaintances revealed that Abhijeet had been battling pancreatic disease for the past three years, which caused irregular sleep patterns and immense stress. This information has fueled speculation regarding the possibility of suicide. DCP Zone I Anurag Jain said that a mobile phone of Abhijeet which was in his pocket was badly damaged. The handset has been sent to Cyber Experts to retrieve the data, he said. He also claimed that no suicide note was recovered from the spot and the relatives are speculating suicide due to financial burden.
